In Novosibirsk, the police arrested a train robber. The man was arrested at the moment when he was stealing some tea, condensed milk and puzzles.
Transport police detained a 43-year-old resident of the Moshkovsky district of the Novosibirsk region on a railway station. As it turned out, the father of three children stole tea, condensed milk and jigsaw puzzles from the train.
According to the press service of the Office of the Transport Ministry in the Siberian Federal District, the conductor of a passing locomotive noticed the man and reported the incident to the police.
