Some Sneaky Sim

Some Sneaky Sim is the only burglar that robs unlucky Sims' houses in The Sims and all of its expansion packs. He will only try to steal the expensive items that are in the household. A Sim can call the police once he arrives on a lot, though they will probably not arrive in time to arrest him. If he comes within range of a burglar alarm, it will automatically summon the police. Unlike The Sims 2 and The Sims 3, he will surrender and go peacefully when the police arrive.

Sims will get extra cash if the burglar is caught.
