There is an old man in his 60s in Wuhan, Hubei Province, who originally received a pension to spend his old age, but his son was addicted to gambling and owed a bunch of debts. In order to help his son out of the predicament, he could not get idle at three o'clock in the morning, busy stealing the manhole cover on the bridge.
In the past three months, when the staff of Wuhan Municipal Road and Bridge Group inspected the Yangtze River Bridge in Cockatoo Island, they found that the manhole covers on the bridge deck and on both sides of the gate were often lost.
Chen Wuke, police officer of Baishazhou Police Station of Wuchang District Bureau of Wuhan Municipal Public Security Bureau: There are more than 100 gutter covers stolen, the cost of each cover is about 400 yuan, and the cumulative theft loss is between 30,000 and 40,000 yuan.
An iron cover plate weighs more than thirty pounds, in addition to economic losses, the more serious is actually a safety hazard. After receiving the alarm, the police conducted a dragnet investigation of the public video of the bridge deck of the Yangtze River Bridge in Parrot Island in recent months, and through the comparative analysis of several crime videos, the police determined that the serial theft case was committed by one person.
After locking the criminal suspect, the police tracked down the line, found the criminal suspect's vehicle in a community in Baishazhou, and successfully arrested the criminal suspect Hu Mou after more than six hours of squatting.
Wuhan Municipal Public Security Bureau Wuchang District Bureau Baishazhou Police Station police officer Chen Wuke: Suspect Hu Mou's income is not high, his son owes a large amount of debt outside, has no ability to repay, he will immediately go to the waste collection station after each successful crime, and at a price of three yuan per kilogram, he will accumulate more than three thousand yuan in stolen money.
