A burglar hid on the roof of a football stadium.
The man is suspected to one of two men who were disturbed while burgling a home in Dyke Road Avenue, Brighton, at about 10pm on Saturday night.
He ran off and climbed onto the roof of Withdean Stadium, former home of Brighton and Hove Albion.
Police called firefighters to trace the man, but they were stood down on route.
A Sussex Police spokesman said they were still attempting to trace the burglars who both escaped their clutches.
