Stealing a Purse to play Video Games!

Two Japanese boys did the “smart” thing…They stole a purse and went into a gaming spree…

Police took two boys, aged 10 and 13, into custody Tuesday for snatching a purse containing 100,000 yen in cash from a 66-year-old woman.

They blew the money on a gaming spree in Sapporo, police said.

The two cousins–a second-year junior high school student and a fourth-grade elementary school pupil here–grabbed the woman’s bag as they rode double on a bicycle, police said.

The two told police they targeted an older woman because they figured it would be easier to steal from a senior citizen.

Afterward, the two went to Sapporo, about 130 kilometers away, and spent the money on games at amusement centers, moving from one to another by hopping into taxis.

Guess this boys will get a good spank now…and if They behave from now on, They could get a Playstation or something.   :twisted:
