Witness Statement
Witnessed by Maria Kostenko, 11b

  That was a usual day. In the evening after work I decided to go to the local supermarket near my dwelling. It must have been about 9pm because there were few people making purchases. As I was seeking for goods I needed I witnessed the shoplifting attempt.

I planned to cook the pasta that evening. As I was choosing it, I noticed a weird man doing strange movements. Well, he looked suspicious not only because of this, his external appearance was quite dubious too. That was a 40-45-year-old man with wrinkles all over his face. He was very lean and tall. The offender was wearing black baggy clothes. The hat on his head in Bob Marley's style was the only coloured item of clothing. Moreover, at first I thought that the legend of reggae had revived. He also had dreads on his head and the felon's face was tanned. He looked like a homeless.

He must have been doing that not the first time, because his movements were noiseless. At the same time he was trying to steal alcohol and some snack clumsily. I can assume that he had been drunk.

When I noticed that, I went to the cashier and informed him. He called the police and the offender was arrested. I think that a community service will do him good.
