Desperate thief swipes beer and pineapple
Police have reported scores of burglaries since the start of the school holidays but few would beat one case in Derenbach for desperation.
(JB) Police have reported scores of burglaries since the start of the school holidays but few would beat one case in Derenbach for desperation.
There, a resident called police to report a break-in.
Among the swag burglars escaped with, there was not a single piece of hi-tech equipment or jewellery- simply a pineapple and a six pack of German beer.
According to reports the burglary took place in the early hours of Sunday morning at the Derenbach address.
It seemed that the resident disturbed the burglar when they heard a loud noise in the basement and went to investigate.
Apparently, the thief was unable to gain entry and only stole items that were within reach from an open window.
