A Colorado suspect was caught in a rather compromising position – on the toilet – when he was arrested by officers last week.

The suspect, who was charged with second-degree burglary, was caught with his pants down when he was apprehended by Lakewood Police early on Thursday. The authorities were responding to a burglary alarm sounding off.

“When a verified burglary alarm went off, [a]gents quickly got to the scene and utilized a drone to look for a suspect,” the Lakewood Police Department explained in a Facebook post.

“While we see a lot of things in the line of doody, we had no clue what awaited us this time!”

Video posted by the department shows serious-faced officers with firearms breaking the bathroom door open.

The officers commanded the suspect to put his hands up – while he was sitting on the toilet with his underpants down.

“I’m on the s––tter, bud,” the suspect said while raising his hands in the air.
