Handbag thief steals cop bicycle

By Tarryn Le Chat

Police in the Bavarian city of Ingolstadt were stunned when a thief they had just released from custody, stole an officer’s bicycle on his way out and rode off on it.

Police had earlier arrested the 22-year-old man, after he was caught stealing handbags. The man was released on condition that he report back to them later.

The officers could scarcely believe his cheek when he took the bicycle. The man was re-arrested, claiming he thought the bicycle belonged to a friend of his. This handbag/bicycle thief won’t be getting out of jail so quickly this time.

Just returned from visiting this quaint town in Bavaria and thought I have Ingolstadt on the brain when I heard this news blurb over breakfast! Clearly the townspeople need have no fear, if bikes and bags are their world news.
