Could you tell us anything about the case?
“Simpson was escaping from one crime scene and entering another one when we were informed about him and a group of unidentified people. He ran into a local supermarket, threatening to sue their business since he was a politician. The store manager blindly obliged but after the group left along with another amount of stolen items the police arrived at the scene. His companions fled at the first sight of police. We are still trying to find them.”
Can You tell us what items he had stolen?
“Yes, some jewellery was found on him. Later, evidence from the investigation discovered it was from a house nearby. Cash, electronics and surprisingly some chocolate bars from the supermarket.”
