Authorities seek thief who rode out of shopping mall on Pooh bear-type children's ride-on toy

Authorities in Belarus are appealing for help to identify a young man who stole a yellow Pooh-bear-type children's electric ride-on toy from a shopping mall in Minsk.



In a statement Minsk Police, who also released surveillance footage from the incident, said: On May 6, at around 22:30pm, in the mall down the street of Kamennogorsk, an unknown young man kidnapped a children's zoomobil worth about 15 million (Belarusian) Rubles (£675, $1,050).





Surveillance cameras captured the man in a blue tracksuit talking on a cell phone before sitting down on a children's electric car. He straddled the bear and pushed his way down the foyer, and then proceeded to the exit from the shopping centre and after on the street.
