Foot Massage Thievery

Wily thieves are offering to massage people's feet and then stealing their cell phones, the Tangerang Police say. (Thoughts, you’re sitting on a bus and a stranger offers to “massage” your feet – yeah – right)

"This is the new modus operandi for cell-phone theft in public minivans," precinct chief Adj. Comr. Fuckwit was quoted as saying..

Police arrested two men, aged 29 and 31, for the theft of a mobile phone. Passengers from the minivan brought them to the police station after they were beaten up by an angry mob. (Having witnessed this vigilante attitude before I imagine cuffing these dudes would have been pretty easy as they were most likely semi conscious after the beating).

Witnesses said one of the men offered to give a foot massage to a woman riding in a R-01 public minivan, on the Pasar Anyar-Jatake route.

While one man was massaging the victim's foot and talking to her, witnesses allege the other took the woman's phone from inside her bag.

After they alighted, the woman realized her phone had gone. Passengers and the crowd chased the men, who had the crap beaten off them before being taken to the police station..

Ahh – Indonesia!
