Man throws brick at car, brick bounces off and knocks him out

Yep, you may call this instant karma.

A would-be thief in Ireland trying to break into a car by smashing the window with a brick didn't apparently didn't know that the car would fight back!  Security video shows the man  throwing the brick toward the window, only to have it bounce off and hit him in the head, knocking him out.

The owner of the car, Gerry Brady, came out to investigate and saw the man lying in a pool of his own blood, according to the Huffington Post. Brady says the man then tried to blackmail him by claiming he attacked him! He tells the Independent: 

“When the Gardaí picked him up, he started claiming that I attacked him. He was still telling them that in the station when I came in with the footage of him getting knocked out by his own brick.”

“You should have heard the garda laughing when they saw the video. They were in stitches. Credit to them, they were straight out when we called and found the guy within minutes.”


Brady quickly called police and the suspect was arrested.
