Sleepy: Timothy Bontrager, 29, fell asleep on a couch after allegedly breaking into and burglarizing a Sarasota home

A Florida burglar foiled his own escape by falling asleep on the couch after breaking into the home over the weekend.

Timothy Bontrager, 29, was charged with felony burglary of an occupied dwelling after being arrested on Saturday morning.

A Sarasota resident woke up around 7:20 am and found Bontrager asleep on the couch in the living room.

The woman asked Bontrager who he was and why he was in her home, at which point the intruder apologized, WTSP reported.

After telling him she was going to call police, Bontrager stood up and walked around the living room before leaving the home.

The resident told officers who arrived that Bontrager had entered through an unlocked sliding glass door.

While police were in the home, the woman noticed her wallet, driver's license, credit and debit cards were missing from the table, along with personal checks that had been made out to Bontrager.
