'I'm a thief'

If you encounter a thief, what would you do? A witness in Yulin, South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region, decided to play a trick on the thief.

A photo gripped Internet users as it caught a thief stealing while a piece of paper reading, "I'm a thief", was pasted to his back. Apparently, the thief did not know the note was on his back, ngzb.com.cn reported.

Many netizens expressed anger about the audacious stealing, as the background of the photo shows that it happened at a bus stop just opposite a police station.

Frogqq, a microblogger, said local police should do more to curb such crimes.
