Unfortunately, scour the internet as I did, I simply cannot find a picture of 44 y/o James Adams of Pacerville, CA, who was arrested last Thursday, April 23rd, 2015, for burglary and resisting arrest.
The victim, a Petaluma, CA woman, had walked downstairs from her second floor bedroom at about 2:00 pm last Thursday to find Adams, a stranger, asleep on her couch. She quickly ran upstairs, shut herself in the bedroom and dialed 911.
The homeowner provided a detailed description to cops who were able to quickly respond and set up a perimeter. The woman remained on the phone with police dispatch until they had surrounded the home and was then instructed to to flee the house quickly.
As she ran down the stairs Adams awoke. He too bolted out, the back door being his choice of egress, kicking down fence boards and gaining entry into a neighbors lawn, where two (2) awaiting Petaluma Cops were lying in wait.
After a brief struggle Adams, and a taser discharge or two (2), Adams was cuffed. After a stop at the hospital he was medically cleared and taken to the Sonoma County Jail, where he is not stranger (reportedly having previously been booked for narcotics, weapons and battery on police officers) with priors in both CA and OR.
What makes this story different from most others is that Adams broke into this home and decided to take a nap on the sofa, but only after pillaging the fridge and baking himself some Tater Tots (yes, you read that right, Adams broke, entered, baked Tater Tots, sat himself on the couch and took a nap).
Yes, I’m seriously…
Apparently James Adams is cat “nap” burglar.
