Lucky Burglar Escapes After Breaking Into Mike Tyson's Hotel Room

A would-be burglar had a lucky escape after sneaking into the hotel room of boxing legend Mike Tyson… and getting out alive.

The intruder is reported to have fled from the £1,000-a-night suite at the Cosmopolitan hotel in Las Vegas, after discovering Iron Mike sleeping.

And it appears to have been a close call -- because the former undisputed world heavyweight champion was woken by the torchlight and noises. However, by the time the 45-year-old was fully roused, the man had gone.

A source told the Mirror: "Whoever was in the room had a very fortunate escape. They would have been terrified if they had come face to face with Iron Mike."
