Paris, February 16 (Wang Qinming) On the night of the 9th local time, a thief was found by the restaurant owner because of too much movement when committing a crime in Sorrini-sur-Marne in the 77th department of Paris, and was caught by the police when he left the crime scene.
A 38-year-old burglar was recently arrested in Thorigny-sur-Marne, a small 77-year-old town in the 77th department on the outskirts of Paris. The "unskilled" thief made too much noise during the nighttime theft in a restaurant, waking up the owner of the restaurant. The restaurant owner noticed an abnormal noise and called the police, and the thief was about to leave when he bumped into the police officers who arrived and was caught.
As a thief, it is a basic principle to be cautious when stealing, and to try not to make a sound, but the thief obviously did not follow these principles.
The thief, 38, lives in montévrain, a nearby town in the same province of 77, and the restaurant is his fourth target for the "Night of Action."
The theft occurred in the night of February 9-10, at about 2 a.m., when the owner of the restaurant, Le Rigal, heard a strange noise coming from his restaurant and quickly called the police. When the police arrived at the scene, they happened to encounter the thief who was trying to drive away in the Citroën C4 sedan.
Police later discovered that Rigal's restaurant was the fourth target of the thief's night, after he had also committed theft at a Japanese restaurant called Jap'eat, as well as a hairdresser and a company that provided caregiver services.
Police then found two drawer cash registers inside the man's car, one containing €160 in cash and the other in cash for €80. Despite the lack of cash, the thief's "booty" included a camera, a hard drive, a television set, a projector and some beauty and hair products.
Police also found license plate id for a Peugeot 308 sedan in the car, which had been at the scene of several other thefts in the area in recent days.
During the search of the suspect's residence, police also found high-end audio, video recorders and computer equipment, as well as 1,000 euros in cash, as well as a small amount of drugs. Through the inspection of personal belongings in the residence, police also found some of the clothes worn by suspects in the burglary cases who were filmed by surveillance.
According to sources, the man involved in the case had multiple cases at the police station, although the man explained that the theft was only to "support the family".
The man had a particular "preference" for bakeries, real estate agents and barbershops in the Chessy, Lagny or Chelles regions of 77 provinces, where he had committed crimes on several occasions. He was handed over to the Meaux Prosecutor's Office for theft and attempted theft and possession of drugs and has been placed in pretrial detention. The case will be further investigated and dealt with by the judiciary.
