BERLIN (Reuters) - A German teen-ager caught shoplifting tried to dupe police by lying about where he lived — but ended up in even more trouble when the address he gave turned out to be the home of an investigating officer.
The 18-year-old from Achim, a town of 30,000 in northern Germany, admitted he had lied when the officer explained that the address belonged to him, said police in nearby Verden.
“It was complete coincidence,” said a police spokesman. “The thief gave that address because he’d once lived in the house. The policeman was the guy who moved in afterwards.”
