A sleepy suspected burglar in Florida is becoming an unwitting social media star after the arresting sheriff's office posted a photo to its Facebook page.

Deputies for the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office said they were responding to a burglary call in Nokomis, Fla., when they found the suspect asleep in a bedroom.

The suspect, Dion Davis, was found with a bag of stolen jewelry lying next to him on the bed. Davis reportedly did not even wake up when deputies started taking photos.

Davis is facing charges of burglary to an unoccupied dwelling.
