In October, Saratov boutiques are often visited by touring thieves

Exactly ten years ago, in October 2016, the alarm was raised in Saratov stores selling men's clothes - a group of thieves specializing in theft of expensive things appeared again. Before that, they were noted in the boutiques of the city on the Volga four years earlier, in the autumn of 2012. October, the month when the first cold starts, seemed to them the most suitable to steal jackets, capes and jumpers from the hangers.

Their scheme of action was clearly worked out - two distract sellers, two steal. For example, they say that the size of the jumper is not suitable and ask to bring another. While the seller with the modeled jacket goes to the back, quickly leave the dressing room, remove an expensive leather jacket from the hanger and hide in an impressive portfolio. The item brought by the seller again does not like and pseudo-buyers leave with the stolen goods.

Of course, all the thieves were decently dressed, “in the classical style”, no suspicion of their appearance and manners did not cause.

The most interesting thing is that the owners of boutiques, where expensive clothes are sold and where thefts were committed, repeatedly contacted the police and the media, provided video footage of the alleged thieves, but no information about the detention of a group of tourers appeared. So it is possible that they will again visit the capital of the Volga region, for example, this October.
