His face is obscured as he creeps around the bed to the other side of the room.
He then leans over the bedside table, picks up a mobile phone, and slowly retraces his steps to the door.
According to local media, he and another man entered three residential blocks via the roof in the early hours of Tuesday (7 May).
The pair stole almost everything they came across in the Lomas del Golf neighbourhood of Mar del Plata, south of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
After pinching the woman’s phone, the burglar went into the kitchen and raided the fridge, as reported on Need To Know.
Then, he and his accomplice took every valuable in sight from the living room.
The next day, numerous residents reported thefts of items such as bicycles, handbags, mobile phones, clothing, and jewellery.
No arrests have been made.
