Cupcake burglar broke into a bakery and stole "irresistible" treats (VIDEO)
A Canadian bakery just had a bizarre break-in where the burglar stole six cupcakes.
Sweet Something Bakery in Vancouver’s Dunbar neighbourhood had an unwanted visitor this week and bakery owner Emma Irvine shared details with Daily Hive about the incident.
According to Irvine, at 3 am on Friday, May 26 a “well-dressed” young man broke into her shop.
“He stayed for about an hour, taking only a box of cupcakes, but only after he tried to mop up the glass on the floor and taking selfies of himself on our store phone wearing orange sunglasses,” said Irvine.
Do you recognize this thief who left selfies behind at the scene of the crime?
In the CCTV footage provided, you can see a man outside the bakery on the street. He shoulder-checks the glass door twice, then he stumbles back and gives the door a kick, smashing the glass entirely.

He enters the bakery and grabs a mop and bucket and smears the mop around the broken glass, shoving some of it towards the door in what could have been an attempt to clean up his mess.
Finally, he boxes up six cupcakes and leaves. “It’s honestly the funniest break-in of all time,” said Irvine, who confirmed that Vancouver Police were called and are investigating.
In Metro Vancouver, businesses have been plagued with break-ins in recent years. In their wake, they leave business owners frustrated with broken glass, repair bills, insurance paperwork and more.
