Daylight theft

Daylight theft

From Pikiran Rakyat

On April 17, 1996, at about 10 a.m. thieves broke into a house on Jl. Parakan Asri-Bypass in Bandung, West Java. The thieves knew the owner was not at home and forced the door open. The seemingly experienced thieves finished the job quickly and fled in a minivan. The same cat burglars robbed a house on Jl. Parakan Ayu right after their successful first operation.

The gang specializes in stealing money and eyeglasses. They leave television sets, video players, cameras and watches.

The thieves don't operate at night because the townspeople take turns patrolling the neighborhood. The burglars shift their activities to the day. Folks beware!
