Police in Roswell, New Mexico, say an accidental pocket-dial led to the arrest of two suspects in the burglary of a home. The incident took place immediately after the two committed the alleged burglary.
Police say one of the suspects inadvertently dialed 911 and discussed details of the alleged crime during their getaway while the call was being recorded, authorities said.
“We basically robbed them, dude,†said one of the suspects. As their 45 minute conversation went on, 911 dispatchers listened and recorded the confession.
“I know we should have gotten a lot more, but you know what, my only thing is that we got away safe, clean,†one of the suspects added.
The two suspects even mentioned the address of the property they had robbed. “We rolled over to Hervey Street and took it out of the [expletive] house.â€
According to authorities, police confirmed a burglary had taken place at the mentioned house.
Police then traced suspect's phone. The suspect denied that his phone dialed 911. He insisted the device “was picking up a conversation among people in an adjacent vehicle who were speaking very loudly,†according to police.
Aaron Burrell, 37, was charged with residential burglary, conspiracy to commit residential burglary and receiving-disposing of stolen property charges, according to authorities.
Yvonne Thyberg, 35 was charged with residential burglary, conspiracy to commit residential burglar and tampering with evidence in this case, according to authorities.
Burrell was held on a $10,000 cash only bond, Thyberg, a $5,000 surety bond. They will both make their first appearance in court Wednesday morning.
