The police carried out a very strange arrest in Amsterdam yesterday. A policeman’s bicycle was stolen in Linnaeusstraat. Not much later, a man on the street offered him a new one. It turned out to be his own bike.
–
The officer was conducting an investigation nearby at the time where he was not wearing his uniform. When he parked his bicycle against a post and turned around for a moment, a thief took off with his bicycle.
–
After the policeman learned that his bicycle had been stolen, he decided to explore the area in the hope of finding it again. In the Eerste Van Swindenstraat a man came cycling to meet him. He stopped, unsuspectingly approached the officer and offered him the bicycle for 20 euros. “That way he could buy another beer.”
–
When asked how the man got his bike, he responded with: “It was around the corner, not locked!” The officer then decided to identify himself as a police. He told him that the man still had to wait for his beer, because he had been arrested for theft.
