Woman left half-naked after her pants gets stuck on gate while trying to steal from cars

A woman allegedly trying to steal from cars ended up with her pants down after a mishap left her half-naked. 

The would-be car thief scaled a fence but her jogging pants hooked on the metal gates, leaving her stuck on the fence as she could not free the fabric.

The woman nearly fell off the top of the fence and the only way to save herself was to slide off the fence without her pants.

Video footage that captured the mishap suggests that she wasn’t wearing any underpants, or had lost them with her tracksuit pants.

The half-naked woman used the arms of her sweater as makeshift trousers after she dropped to the ground.

The bungled break-in was filmed outside a plush home in Maipú, near Santiago, in Chile, in the early hours of Tuesday, May 7. 

According to reports, the woman was with an accomplice who drove off and abandoned her when he saw the striking scenes. 

She allegedly looked inside the parked cars to see if there was anything to steal, but left empty-handed.

She was able to flee the scene when security guards changed their shifts shortly after the filmed moments.

It’s unclear if the police are trying to track her down.
