NOKOMI, FL -- Talk about a heavy sleeper.



Police say an accused burglar continued snoozing next to a bag of jewelry he was allegedly planning to swipe even after deputies began snapping pictures of him.



According to the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office Facebook page, a cleaning lady discovered 29-year-old Dion Davis on a bed inside the victim's home Monday.



Deputies say they took several photographs of the sleeping Davis, but he didn't wake up.



The Herald Tribune reports Davis was charged with burglary and booked into jail on $10,000 bail.
