Florida Man Hailed as Hero After Apprehending Burglar in Batman Pajamas
Kyle Myvett, a resident of Southeast Cape Coral, Florida, found himself in an unexpected heroic role early on the morning of April 2, 2023. Around 2 a.m., an alert on his wife's phone alerted him to a break-in at his home. Still wearing his Batman pajamas, Myvett ventured outside to investigate the disturbance.
To his surprise, he found 20-year-old Justin Schimpl rummaging through his truck. Myvett quickly took action, grabbing Schimpl's shirt and right wrist, thereby facilitating the apprehension of the burglar by the police.
Myvett's quick thinking and decisive actions were praised by the police, who referred to him as a hero for his actions. The break-in, it seems, was a crime of opportunity, with vehicles being left unlocked, as stated by Lisa Greenberg, a representative from the Cape Coral Police.
Upon investigation, it was confirmed that the stolen items from Myvett's truck included two pairs of Ray-Ban sunglasses, a wrist wallet, and more than $500 worth of gift cards. Schimpl is now facing charges for burglary of an unoccupied conveyance, petit theft, and burglary of an occupied dwelling.
Interestingly, Myvett admitted to leaving his truck unlocked due to the neighborhood's usual calmness. However, this incident serves as a reminder to always secure one's vehicles, even in seemingly safe neighbourhoods.
The break-ins in Myvett's neighbourhood were also attributed to the practice of leaving vehicles unlocked by their owners. The police did not provide any additional information about the investigation or potential other suspects in the case.
As for Schimpl, the stolen items from other vehicles in the neighbourhood were not specified in the provided information. He is currently facing charges for his actions, and the police continue to investigate the case further.
Myvett, despite being a contractor during the day, remains humble about his heroic actions. Contrary to popular belief, he does not wear Superman pajamas, but rather Batman pajamas. He believes that being impervious and invincible does not make one brave.
In the end, Myvett's quick thinking and bravery not only saved his own property but also potentially prevented further crimes in his neighbourhood. His story serves as a reminder to always be vigilant and secure one's possessions, no matter how safe the neighbourhood may seem.
