Thieves want to Steal Onions now as Robbing Money, Gold is not Lucrative for them

As per one news report....Thieves want to Steal Onions now as Robbing Money, Gold is not Lucrative for them. As per the report:

Indian police have foiled a bid by robbers to make off with a truck laden with onions, in an unusual crime apparently motivated by rocketing prices of the staple food.

Three men stopped a truck on the main road from the western city of Jaipur to the capital New Delhi on Sunday on the pretence that their vehicle had been damaged in a collision.

After accusing the truck driver of causing the accident, one of the men jumped behind the wheel and the others fled.

Police were quickly alerted and they erected barricades on surrounding roads to stop the thieves.

Seeing their route blocked, the men abandoned their loot and escaped on foot, allowing the grateful truck driver to continue on his journey. Read full story here
