A man dressed much like a blue ninja broke into a St. Clair Shores, MI, jewelry store, police say.

The culprit tried and failed to break through the front window of Michael Agnello Jewelers using a pipe, Click On Detroit reports. He then managed to break in through the front door. (Watch video of the break-in below.)

The incident, which happened at about 4 a.m., resulted in thousands of dollars in damage. The thief made off with a few items, but nothing of high value, said store owner Michael Agnello.

Given the criminal’s attire and general incompetence, Agnello found humor in the situation.

“We cracked up at it, it’s pretty hilarious,” he told the news outlet.

Police have a person of interest in the case but haven’t yet made any arrests.

Time to Do What You've Always Wanted? Time to Call Wilkerson.

It was time. Teri Allen and her brother, Nick Pavlich, Jr., had been at the helm of Dearborn Jewelers of Plymouth in Plymouth, Mich., for decades. Their father, Nick Pavlich, Sr., had founded the store in 1950, but after so many wonderful years helping families around Michigan celebrate their most important moments, it was time to get some “moments” of their own. Teri says Wilkerson was the logical choice to run their retirement sale. “They’re the only company that specializes in closing jewelry stores,” she says. During the sale, Teri says a highlight was seeing so many generations of customers who wanted to buy “that one last piece of jewelry from us.” Would she recommend Wilkerson? Absolutely. “There is no way that I would have been able to do this by myself.”
