Narrator:
One of the most important elements in the investigation of a crime is to know whether the criminal is a professional or an amateur. The amateur presents the greatest problem, because he doesn't follow a set pattern, but presents a strange and unintelligible M.O. One Sunday last March, an amateur planned to burglarize a warehouse. His method was crude and direct. But in the execution of his robbery, he ran into unexpected problems, brought about by a one-in-a-million chance coincidence.
