GRIFFITH, Ind. — A man in Lake County, Indiana was arrested last week for allegedly burglarizing the same business twice in a 24-hour period.
The Griffith Police Department says it arrested Michael Anderson on August 7 for breaking into the same business in the 500 block of E. Glen Park Avenue. Police did not share the name of the business, but Google Maps shows a small grocery store, furniture store, smoke shop, laundromat, insurance office, and health café in that vicinity.
They say that lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, but sometimes a burglar does.

Anderson was found at a nearby apartment and later confessed to a detective about his involvement in both crimes, according to a post on the Griffith Police Facebook page.
He has been charged with two counts of burglary, theft, and criminal mischief by the Lake County Prosecutor’s Office.
