LONDON (Reuters) - A bungling British thief left fingerprints in a car he stole but also something more helpful to police — a photograph of himself breaking into the vehicle. Lee Hosken broke into the car with a screwdriver and found a camera in the glove compartment. He let his girlfriend photograph him as he searched the car and posed outside his home brandishing the screwdriver he used for the break-in. Later he dumped the car — and left the camera inside. The owner of the car, Matthew Holden, was dumbfounded when he had the film developed a week later. "I was looking through the pictures when suddenly I saw my car and some bloke in it with a screwdriver in his hand. When I showed the police they recognised him straight away," newspapers quoted him as saying. Hosken was sentenced on Wednesday to a two-year driving ban and two years probation. "We are very grateful to this man for making his own arrest so easy. He quite literally put himself in the frame for his own crime," a police spokesman said.
