Worcester Square vestibule proves problematic for hapless burglar: He found himself trapped in it, smashed his way out, was promptly arrested, police say

Boston Police report arresting a man they say tried to break into one of the brownstones on the even-numbered side of 28 Worcester Square around 1 this morning: Once he opened the outer door, he found himself trapped - he couldn't open the second, inner door and then the outer door locked him into the small space.

Police say John Mucci, 44, of Somerville escaped by smashing in the outer door - but not for long: Officers responding to a 911 call from a resident spotted him fleeing and turning the corner onto Harrison Avenue, where they quickly detained him and charged him with felony breaking and entering in the nighttime. And, of course, South End brownstone doors don't come cheap, so he was also charged with destruction of property over $1,200, court records show.

Innocent, etc.
