Thief exchanges stolen trousers for better fit
(China Daily)
Updated: 2006-10-11 17:15 When a thief found that the trousers he had stolen did not fit him, he went back to the department store and secretly exchanged them in the city of Sanya, Hainan Province, on Monday. Department store assistants were surprised to find the trousers that had been stolen on Sunday when they took stock after the business hours on Monday evening - but another pair of trousers of another size were gone. They supposed that the thief stole a pair of trousers from their store but later found that the stolen trousers didn't fit him. The thief had then returned to the department store, secretly replaced them and taken the second pair. As for the culprit's identity, they suspected a man in his 30s who had tried on many trousers in their store in the past two days, but failed to buy any. Police were notified, and have launched an investigation. Hainan Special Zone Daily |
