So is the story true or has granny spiced it up a bit.
At the moment in my mind there are too many questions unanswered.
It doesn't surprise me, but then I'm not familiar with the state of policing or the nuances of crime in the UK. Around here, criminal types who get injured doing crime are pretty reluctant to go to hospital, because the police will arrest and jail them. Even life-threatening injuries will get treated through back-channels in such cases.
Then again, if the miscreant actually died, he may never be found. I'm fairly sure one breaking into MY house would never be seen again, anyhow.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
