Concerned Burglar Returns to the Scene of the Crime

Did you hear about the kind New Zealand burglar?

He snuck into a home through a window and stole several items such as the property owners laptop, camera and wallet. Unfortunately the couple were unable to make insurance claims on these items for some reason.

A short while after the burglary the couple returned home to find their missing items along with gloves and a basketball that had been purchased using their credit card. The kind hearted burglar had left a note apologizing for robbing them and stated that he’d leave money in their mailbox to pay for the window that he’d broken.

I wish all burglars only borrowed things!

Melt down over lost keys

A crazed woman in Florence, Ore., broke into a neighbor’s trailer and set it afire after being unable to find her keys – which were hanging from her pants pocket the whole time.

The unidentified 23-year- old trashed the next-door trailer, sprayed lighter fluid on a stuffed animal and placed it on the stove to start the blaze.

Her boyfriend found her hiding barefoot and incoherent behind a bush across the street.

Wow. Now that’s a blowout.

Funny how I always fear my sisters going to go off that way whenever she’s looking for her keys in her purse. She gets so frantic and not once have they not been there.

Trapped in elevator for 3 days

Can you imagine being stuck in an elevator for three days?

Well that’s what happened to a woman in a suburban Paris housing project last week. The woman, 19 years of age, was found very dehydrated but alive on December 22nd. Newspaper and Television accounts state that the womans father had contacted the building concierge on December 19th when he learned his daughter was missing and suggested that she might be stuck in a broken elevator. However, no alarm had gone off, and they said that a repairman checked the elevators and didn’t find anyone inside.

The repairman began work on the broken elevator the following day, and then returned on the 22nd it was then that he heard a soft cry. On Wednesday, the girl’s father, who had advised police of his daughter’s disappearance, filed a complaint for non-assistance to a person in danger – a crime in France – according to Le Figaro.

Several elevators in the housing project had recently been renovated but not the one in question, according to the news reports. They said that it was unclear why Safiatou did not cry out for help.
