NEWARK, New Jersey (AP) -- A father's attempt to teach his daughter a lesson about drinking backfired when the teen led police to a stash of drugs and weapons inside their home.

Kevin Winston, 46, called police at 2:45 a.m. Friday after his 16-year-old daughter came home drunk and unruly. When police arrived, however, the girl told them she feared for her safety because her father stored drugs and weapons in the home.

The girl led officers to a crawl space above the ceiling where they found four semiautomatic guns and more than 600 vials of cocaine.

Winston was charged with numerous weapons and drug charges. His five daughters were placed in the custody of a relative.

"He called us on her and ended up getting locked up himself," said Newark Police Director Anthony Ambrose.

Kinda reminds me of one criminal who got caught when I was living in Japan.

It seems a thief broke into a guest lodge near mount Fuji and had to quickly exit as police arrived.  Although the police didn't see him in the act of exiting, they were able to track him down and identify him.  It seems he was the only guy moving barefoot along the street of the village as he had politely taken his shoes off in the entryway ( a Japanese custom) of the lodge he was robbing and didn't have time to retrieve them.
