Early in the morning, a resident of the capital went to work in the trolley bus No. 10. Going to get out at the right stop, he suddenly felt some stirring and tremors from behind, but did not attach any importance to this. On the street, the man inspected his bag just in case - all departments were closed. Only when he got to work did he find his wallet missing, which contained a pass.

Subsequently, a resident of the capital appealed to the police. According to the recordings of security cameras installed in the trolleybus, the employees exposed the thief. He stood behind the victim, quietly opened the lock of one of the compartments of his bag, took out his wallet, and then zipped up the zipper. In the wallet were two bank and social cards, pills, a work permit and other property that does not represent any value.

In relation to the unclean Minsk citizen, another criminal case was opened.
