Hey, what was it that tipped you off?
BRUSSELS - A shoplifter sweltering in more than
10 pieces of stolen clothing while summer temperatures soared
toward 86 degrees Fahrenheit was apprehended by security guards
in the Belgian city of Antwerp.
Belgian daily Het Laatste Nieuws reported Thursday that the
woman, aged 24, had been arrested after guards at a sports
clothing shop in the busy commercial heart of the city noticed
her bulky garb.
When detained, she was found to be wearing a jogging suit,
a sweater, four polo shirts, three T-shirts, four sleeveless
tops, a pair of shorts and trainers, the newspaper said.
