How to Catch a Thief

Have you ever got something stolen from you? My wife had an experience today. Her mobile fell out of her pocket when she was on the bus. She only noticed it was missing when she was out of the bus. Other passengers had got on. She immediately went back to speak to the driver, who knew nothing. She also looked around the seats but could not find it. All the passengers seemed pretty nonchalant. She then borrowed a mobile from a passenger to ring her own number. Before she could do so, one of the new passengers hurriedly got off. My wife sensed there was something wrong with her, so immediately followed her and confronted her. The phone was found inside that woman's bag! She claimed she was going to take it to the police station. My wife called the police and now the matter is in the hands of the police. Isn't that pretty amazing?

It is indeed a appriciable move by her because when you loose something espicially valuable your mind will come to a serious stop.It is hard to think in situations like this.

Why would that woman want your wifes mobile so badly? its not like she could do anything with it! I have lost mine before and reported it missing as soon as i found out i had lost it. Usually the person who finds it calls one of the contacts, or when i call the phone they answer and ask me where i can meet them to pick it up. I guess i have just been lucky so far. I try to keep everything in its own specific spot nowaday so i dont loose it. But i am the kind of person who will loose their head if it wasn't attatched.
