In a great report today out of Reuters, a German thief found himself on the opposite side of the exchange when would-be victim not only fought him off, but stole the thief’s wallet instead.
The 20-year-old attacker in the western German town of Aldenhoven waited, wanting his wallet back, while the taxi driver he had been intent on robbing called the police. He now faces charges of attempted robbery, and being the worst thief in history.
