The man tried to penetrate DFC Chicken in Birmingham by climbing through an extractor-fan shaft at 2am.
But somehow he managed to get himself stuck, and had to wait SEVEN HOURS to be freed by a rescue team.

It was a passer-by who first spotted the crook’s legs protruding from the shaft, and West Midlands Police arrived on the scene at 8.20am.
PC Matthew Willocks, who took a picture of the man’s legs, said: “The extractor unit had been removed and the suspect had climbed into the extractor outlet at around 2am.
