Summary
Inside the chimney of the historic log cabin in downtown Warren, police did not find any Christmas cheer...just a burglar who was stuck. "Hold on buddy," Patrol Officer Brian Martinek said to Richard Kline, moments after they found him inside the chimney. Warren police got a call a little before two Thursday morning saying a man with no shirt was seen going into the chimney. A few minutes later the man could be heard screaming that he was stuck. "I'm going to die," Kline yelled to cops. Sgt. Martin Gargas, quickly responded, telling Kline he would be OK. A few minutes later firefighters arrived with a rope and were able to help police pull Kline to safety, but on the way out of the chimney, Kline's shorts fell off. Even though he was a little cold, he wasn't injured. And police tell me that this was the second time in four hours that they met up with Kline. Before finding Kline in the chimney at the log cabin, police were called to apartments on Lodwick, where a man says he believed Kline was trying to break into his apartment. Cops arrested Kline on an aggravated burglary charge and brought him to the Trumbull County jail. "The jail refused to take him," Hicks said. A report from the jail, says Kline admitted to taking a prescription pain killer. Jail officials wanted Hicks to be checked by a hospital before having him booked into their facility. Police then issued him a summons and Kline was released. A few hours later...he was found in the chimney. Kline plead not guilty to breaking and entering. He remains in jail on a ten thousand dollar bond and is expected back in court next week.
