ASIR, 27 December 2006 — An illegal resident and a suspected thief were arrested and placed in the back of a police car following a raid in this southern Saudi city, according to a report in yesterday’s Al-Watan newspaper.
And the thief thought, “Hey, this is a great opportunity to rob from an illegal!”
He then proceeded to snatch the man’s wallet right there in the back of the police car. The illegal resident noticed the attempted pick-pocketing and informed police, which was easy, considering that they were sitting in the front seat of the car.
Police found the incident humorous, but filed an incident report against the crook, too. After all, if you’re dumb enough to commit a crime while in custody in the back of a cop car, you’re kinda’ asking for it.
