Thief Incarcerated in Used

Clothing Bin
Mon Mar 15, 2:03 PM ET



BERLIN (Reuters) - A German trying to steal clothes donated to

charity was caught by police after he fell into the man-sized collection bin and got trapped.


\"Arriving at

the container, the officers saw two arms. The left hand held a cigarette and a voice demanded, \'Give me a

light!\',\" police said in a statement.


A passerby had alerted them after hearing strange noises coming

from inside the metal bin late at night in the western city of Bochum.


Police prevented the trapped

43-year-old from smoking, called the fire brigade to free him and let him go after charging him with attempted

robbery.
