Bakery robber may be Melbourne's dumbest criminal

A bumbling would-be robber who broke into a Frankston bakery only to discover himself trapped in a locked store room may well be Melbourne's dumbest criminal.

The young man was captured on CCTV footage desperately stacking up containers and shelves to climb out of the skylight, where he had entered the Heatherhill Road building, only to fall from roof height several times onto the floor.

Footage of his 30-minute ordeal shows him becoming increasingly anxious and piling whatever he can find - containers, chairs, bins, even brooms - into the corner of the small room so he can climb up to the roof.

But his attempts are fruitless and he crashes to the ground on more than five occasions.

The footage also shows him desperately making calls from his mobile phone, presumably asking friends to come and help him escape.

He eventually broke out of the room with a large gash on his head, but only after noticing the security camera and looking directly into the lens. He also left without any dough.
