sourceHearing noises in her bathroom, she called 911. Police found this inside.
The 911 call comes in at 1:48 p.m. A woman tells the dispatcher someone is in her bathroom. The bathroom door is locked, but she can see shadows moving beneath the door.
Several deputies of the Washington County (Ore.) Sheriff's Office arrive at the scene within a minute and surround the house. They request that a police canine be brought to assist them.
Inside the house, deputies approach the bathroom. They can hear sounds coming from behind the door. Deputy Rogers (we assume it's Deputy Brian Rogers) would later describe the sound as "rustling."
The deputies make several announcements and command the suspect to come out of the room. The suspect ignores them. The rustling becomes more frequent.
Left with no other choice, deputies draw their guns and break down the door. Inside they encounter the culprit — a Roomba Robotic Vacuum Cleaner enthusiastically hoovering around in circles.
In his incident report, Deputy Rogers commented that the Roomba's vacuuming job was "very thorough."
The sheriff's office recounted the incident in a Facebook post Tuesday, but did not mention what day it occurred. It also did not explain how the Roomba locked the door (maybe it pushed the door closed while the lock was engaged?).
Since the only items it was stealing were dust bunnies, shed hair and scraps of tissue, the Roomba was released on its own recognizance.

Police: "We know you're in there, Roomba, we want you to come out slowly... and come out clean."

Was it dusted for prints?

If the cops had filled it with lead, would it have been a sucker for punishment?
Re: Vacuous Woman Calls 911
At least they've come clean about it, rather than trying to sweep it under the rug...

Lucky it was a white Roomba.

"Come on out, Hoover you are!"
"You're in a HEPA trouble!"
"Come out with your hands up, or you're gonna Dyson!"
I got bags more of those but I don't want to to make a Miele of it.

But...was there a cat riding on the Roomba?
Re: Vacuous Woman Calls 911
When there's dirty work afoot there is often a cat at the center of it.

Those Roombas can't go fur
The cops couldn't see what was going on in that room but after a while they got a view with a Roomba
