ALEXANDRIA, La. (KALB) -- A man has been arrested, and booked into the same jail for the 77th time.

According to police in Alexandria, Louisiana, officers responded to the report of a man stuck in the chimney of a business early Friday morning.

Employees told officers that when they arrived at the business, they could hear a man yelling. They found he was stuck.

While officers were in route, police say the man was able to free himself from the chimney. He then reportedly threw a brick at an employee before running from the store.

Officers were soon able to locate the suspect. Police identify him as 41-year-old Matthew Mobley of Alexandria.

Police say this is the 77th time Mobley has been booked into the Rapides Parish Detention Center.

This is Mobley's 77th booking into the Rapides Parish Detention Center. He's facing charges of attempted simple burglary and aggravated assault.

APD officers said in a news release that they did not locate a sleigh or any presents on scene.

“This guy has some sort of disorder or some sort of fetish about being trapped and immobilized.”

I know there are people who are in to that sort of thing, but every time I hear of one of these fools stuck in a chimney it gives me the willies. Maybe I’m a little claustrophobic. OK, a lot claustrophobic, if that means a fear of getting stuck. This guy was obviously not all that stuck, so you may be right.

Something similar happened in Natchez, Ms in the mid 1990s.If I remember, it was a antique store which they decided a fireplace would be a cozy touch. After getting someone to see why there was no draft to keep a fire going,it was determined the obstructionist had been in the chimney for years.

I read once that he was trying to explain what Ernest T. was supposed to act and sound like and everyone thought that he did it so well that he ought to play Ernest T.
