Burglar Alert! Hide Your Toilets

A New York burglar not only went to the toilet -- he took it with him.

The man broke into a Brooklyn apartment and, ignoring the more typical loot, seized the porcelain throne and staggered off down the block, the Brooklyn Paper reported Wednesday.

Flush with the success of his crime, the burglar returned to the scene and told his victim, a lawyer: "I'm going to slit your throat," the report said.

A 53-year-old suspect was arrested the next day.
