Robber Impaled by Railings While Escaping With Stolen items (photos)

A suspected robber was caught while escaping a house he had robbed as the railings of the fence impaled him there, leaving him unable to move.

The man who had burglarized a residence in Robertsham, South Africa Saturday night, met  a ‘sharp’ end to his nefarious activities due to the accident, according to this report.

While it is unclear if the suspected robber lost his life to the incident or if he survived same, the pictures from the scene show that the experience must have been excruciatingly painful as the railings appear to have pierced his stomach and possibly damaged vital organs in the process.

One of the pictures, showed that the  unnamed man had thrown some of the stolen items over the fence before he made for his own escape which unfortunately for him, did not happen.
