Bavaria: "thieving fox" scorns surveillance cameras as prey

Starnberg (dpa / lby) - An animal camera thief left some evidence in Starnberg because he spurned his prey. Snapshots transferred the "thieving fox" on Thursday, as the police announced on Friday. The animal stole a surveillance camera from a property. Realizing that his prey was "not really edible," he dumped it a few houses down. A local resident found her there. With the help of the stored video recordings, the police first found the property from which the fox kidnapped the camera and then discovered the animal perpetrator on the recordings.

According to the police, the fox does not have to fear investigations. "Unfortunately, we could not identify him 100 percent and must therefore assume an unknown fox in this case," said a spokesman.
