Shop-lifter Story

 I spent a couple of hours in Wiesbaden today....in the shopping district. 

A unique experience....I sat in a book shop (we have just one left in the mid-town area)....where I noticed a guy come from the upstairs with two books on his right side....hidden from view of the cash register.

Fast-paced walk, and slipped by quickly...exiting the store.  From the point where I noticed him until he exited?  No more than four seconds.  

Yeah.....shop-lifting.  

These aren't store-keepers that actively monitor stuff like this.

Kid?  I'd say six feet tall...maybe 16 or 17 years old.  

I have no idea what the average take is in town.....but I'd guess weekly from all the shops....it's probably over 20,000 Euro.
