Footprints lead police to burglars
2005-12-30
German police have captured two men suspected of stealing from 15 cars and two garden sheds by following their footprints in the snow for several kilometres. Policemen were checking up on a car whose alarm had been set off just after midnight in the town of Hoentrop when they found a smashed window and two sets of footprints. They followed the footprints for more than 10 streets. "At one point the tracks disappeared because someone had cleared the pavement outside their home in the middle of the night," police said in a statement. After this minor setback, the officers picked up the trail again. The two sets of footprints led them directly to the entrance of a flat where the burglars not only stored their booty but also left their shoes and gloves to dry.

#9  Aris, funny thing is, Redneck Jim will probably turn out to be right. The only way you can get the news from the MSM in these PC times is by reading between the lines.

#6  Redneck Jim, it's always nice when you can make insinuations without basing them on absolutely anything.

Why the men must *definitely* be Muslim, because they're never referred as such. How logical!

Cars, I understand. Garden sheds?
Looking for fertilizer to make bombs with?
I note how completely and thoroughly they do NOT mention the person as either a "Youth" or as a "Muslim" that almost certainly means a Muslim otherwise the word "Youth" would be in headline sized type.
