He may have tried to rob The Long and the Short of It, but he didn't know the half of it.
Concord, N.H., police said Thomas Dufield, 37, of nearby Laconia broke into the aforementioned whimsically named hair salon Wednesday night, but had a little more trouble breaking out.
"He thought he would come out through [the window]," witness Rita Cummings told WMUR-TV of Manchester, N.H. "Of course, he couldn't, so the police had to cut this out to get him out."
Cummings called the cops when she saw someone breaking into the salon, and Dufield allegedly dove through a rear window when they arrived.
"Rita said some guy had broke in," said salon owner Lori Haney. "I saw them taking his guy away on a gurney and he was handcuffed and everything."
Fifteen dollars was found in Dufield's pocket, allegedly from the salon's cash register, according to police, who added that the suspect had a history of drug problems.
Firefighters cut the window frame out around Dufield, who was bleeding from the head and waist from broken glass. "I've been around 25 years, and we've had people stuck in windows and chimneys and stuck in tight places," said Lt. Walter Carroll. "” Thanks to Out There reader Donna S.

If you're certain you know everything, there's little opportunity to learn anything.
The guy will sue the salon owner for having window that are too small, fill with dangerous glass. He will win, and the salon owner will loose her business -- all she's worked for her whole life.

Plausible since it's a Yankee state ...

That sound about right, North Texan?
Can't say for sure. Had this been in Texas, she could have probably shot him since the commission of the crime occurred at night. But this is New Hampshire, and their laws are probably a little different.
BTW, this guy is lucky. Get stuck in a salon window here, and you risk being violated with a hot curling iron.
