Retired cops catch pickpocket
( 2003-11-19 16:44) (China Daily)
Three retired police officers, all in their 70s, caught a pickpocket
operating on a bus last week, reports New Express News.
The former policemen immediately noticed a passenger's suspicious behaviour
after they boarded a bus in the Fangcun area.
As they expected, he lifted a wallet from another passenger's pocket after a
short while. For other passengers' safety, the men followed the pickpocket when
he stepped off at the next bus stop and caught him with the stolen wallet.
"We may be old, but we still wish to make our contribution to public safety,"
they said.
