SEOUL -- South Korean police came across an unexpected crime scene when they were searching for a thief suspected of stealing a lost bag left on the side of a road.
During their search through security camera footages to get a glimpse of the criminal, they were shocked and probably felt ridiculous to see a dog skillfully walk away with the trophy in its mouth.
The thief canine was caught in Gyeongsan, some 250 kilometers (155 miles) southeast of Seoul, after a woman lost her bag containing some 220,000 won (204 US dollars) in cash and credit cards on March 6. The dog's near-perfect crime came to an end when its master reported to police about a strange bag his dog had brought home.
In an unusual move, police have uploaded a related video onto Facebook which was watched widely.
