Burglar Caught Raiding 'Beer Fridge'

Resident does not believe the man actually escaped with any of her beer.

A Bethlehem woman says she will keep her garage door closed from now on after finding a man digging around in her "beer fridge" on Jan. 3.

The woman said she walked into her garage and caught the male in the act. Upon seeing the woman, the male -- described as a white male in his 20s wearing a dark jacket -- ran out of the garage and towards the front of the neighborhood.

The woman explained she normally leaves the garage door of her Carriage Drive home open, but intends to keep it closed in the future. Nothing was reported missing.
