A man has been accused of pretending to be a mannequin in a shop window in the Polish capital Warsaw in order to steal jewellery.
CCTV images showed the 22-year-old standing still and holding a bag in the window inside a shopping centre as it closed.
Police said “when he felt safe” he went “hunting” and robbed a jewellery stand.
He is accused of returning another day and eating at one of the bars in the shopping centre, before slipping into a clothing store “to exchange his clothes for new ones”.
The man is then said to have stopped at the restaurant again “to eat another meal”.
The 22-year-old was later spotted and detained by security personnel, who called the police.
He has been charged with burglary and theft.
Police spokesperson Robert Szumiata said the man was already known to police for taking money from several cash registers and trying to steal other items at another shopping centre.
