Coventry City Police responded to the backlash with this explanation:

Aside from the two photos taken literally inside people’s houses, I don’t think this is too bad a move? Especially if it means people will take better care in securing their homes before going out. Even if that means going all-out with some Home Alone style booby traps.

P.S. Remember – not all burglars are a bad bunch. This one took the time to bake a potato and rake some leaves before making his getaway.
