ORLAND PARK, Ill., Nov. 27 (UPI) -- Police in Orland Park, Ill., said a woman apparently locked her purse inside a former employer's office after allegedly breaking into the room.
Officers alleged that Silva Schleiter-Doede, a doctor who formerly subcontracted for the optical department at a department store before April of this year, entered an office Sunday at the store during business hours using a hidden key she discovered, the Chicago Daily Southtown reported Tuesday.
Authorities claimed that security tapes showed Schleiter-Doede going between the office and her car during the next two hours, carrying items out of the building.
However, she then apparently accidentally locked herself out of the office -- with her purse and other belongings inside. She allegedly tried to enter the office through the ceiling, only to crush ceiling tiles and a metal pipe when she fell through the ceiling into the office.
