A
dozy car thief was knocked clean out after he tried to steal a new
Mercedes coupe from outside a pub by throwing a brick at the driver's
side window which bounced back, striking him in the head.
The
thief was found lying in the road near the Pheasant Bar by the pub's
owner who automatically assumed that the man had been injured in
hit-and-run.
However,
when Gerry Brady asked the man what happened, he said he had been
'attacked' but did not want to call the police or an ambulance.
