Cake robber returned once too often
A Chinese man was arrested after attempting to steal cakes at knifepoint three times in an hour from the same shop.
The 36-year-old burst into the cake shop at Changchun city, Jilin province, and told staff to give him some cakes.
"He came in with a knife and told us to freeze. Taking two cakes, he ran away," the shop manager told the Eastern Asia Economic News.
Considering the loss was so minor, the manager didn't call the police, but then, after only ten minutes, the robber returned and stole two more cakes.
This time, the manager called the police and officers were at the scene 30 minutes later when the man came back to the shop, asking staff to "load him with another two cakes".
At first, he told police he was a visitor and only spoke "foreign language", but he finally admitted he had just been hungry.
