In the small town of Ibbenbüren, NRW, an intriguing episode unfolded:

Cycling with a Twist

Ibbenbüren recently became the setting for an unusual turn of events. A man, sporting a blue denim jacket, blow-dried hair, and a silver-handled basket brimming with essentials, rode a lady's bicycle. His destination? Ransacking a petrol station!

:10:00 AM on October 15, this peculiar character struck. Alone in the store, the cashier was faced with an unfamiliar weapon - be it scissors or knives - and the masked perpetrator's ominous demand for access to the till. After seizing the cash, he scampered away, leaving behind his bicycle, just two minutes later.
