A man attempted to escape the stress of life by committing a crime and immediately turning himself to the police, with the intent of being imprisoned for a period of time. However, he was only fined and not given any jail time, according to Chinese online media outlet Pear News.

The man, surnamed Wei, drove drunk to the police station in Changzhou City of China’s Jiangsu Province on July 20, and told the officers that he had committed such a crime, according to the Pear Videos report from July 30.
