“Walk around the private sector and grabbed a chainsaw”: a thief was detained in Prokopyevsk

In Prokopyevsk, a 42-year-old man, previously convicted, decided to improve his financial situation at the expense of a pensioner. He stole a chainsaw from a 73-year-old man's home. Damage - about 6 thousand rubles. This was reported to the police of Kuzbass.

How was it? The pensioner appealed to the duty unit of the Central department and said that the tool had been penetrated and stolen into his home. Police quickly identified the suspect. It turned out that the man was walking around the private sector, noticed the house, tried to open the door - and she succumbed. Then he took a chainsaw from the veranda and was like that. However, he sold it on the local market for only 1,500 rubles. It's a bargain, you can't tell.

Now against him opened a criminal case under the article “Theft”. The maximum penalty is up to 6 years in prison. The police seized the chainsaw and returned it to the owner.

The moral is simple: do not walk in other people’s yards and even more so check whether the doors are locked. You can not only lose the tool, but also freedom.
