Dog apprehended in Bielawa for robbing shoppers - but was it acting alone?

Police officers in Bielawa have apprehended a dog that had stolen meat from more than ten shopping bags and trolleys. According to witnesses, the black doberman loitered around small shops, observing potential victims. It then tracked the victim, chose the most opportune moment, snatched the meat, made its escape and immediately consumed the loot. The culprit was caught after one of the victims, deprived of the meat she wanted to use to cook some broth, identified it as the resident of a nearby farm. The dog was soon apprehended, placed in police custody and later handed over to the owner. According to police, the dog grew up in a dogs' home, where his wardens, however, remember him as a "nice doggy." Police officers in Bielawa have now launched an investigation to ascertain whether the dog's criminal tendencies were the product of its training. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 5) J.K
