Fleeing shoplifter forgets son

A shoplifter looking to make a quick getaway from a Dutch supermarket after stealing a packet of meat left police a crucial piece of evidence — his 12-year-old son.

In his haste the 45-year-old thief made a solo dash to his car, batting away a supermarket worker who had flung himself on the vehicles’ bonnet in a bid to stop the escape.

Police in the southern Dutch town of Kerkrade said they managed to contact the thief via the boy, but he had refused to return and collect his son. The man told officers to get hold of the youngster’s mother instead.

The thief later turned himself in Thursday, a police spokeswoman said.

  1. Nice post, like 90% of the websites on bing were clearly written by a foreigner. Question: do you think websites like how to roll a joint should be allowed on the web for minors?

  2. Very nice and clear blog, shame that previously did not know about it.
