Thanks to the ‘sharp look and attentiveness’ of a 12-year-old boy, a notorious bicycle thief has been arrested in Rijsbergen. This is reported by the police.
The suspect was not at home when officers rang the doorbell on Saturday to pick him up, but the young man said he had seen the bicycle thief at a local supermarket shortly before. The suspect was indeed found there and arrested. In addition, a stolen bicycle could be returned to its owner.
The 12-year-old reporter received a ‘patch’ from the Weerijs Police Base Team as a thank you. “Thank you again dude!” the police said on Twitter.
