Winnie-the-Pooh held for Robbery

By Miss Cellania in Crime & Law on Aug 13, 2008 at 10:20 am


Japanese police say 20-year-old Masayuki Ishikawa was on a Tokyo street corner after midnight when he objected to strangers who stared at him. They were staring at him because he was wearing a Winnie-the-Pooh costume, accompanied by two other people dressed as a panther and a mouse.

Ishikawa and his friends beat up the two victims and stole $160 (84 pounds) from them, the spokesman said, adding the group had apparently donned the unusual garb because they had run out of clean clothes.

    If he didn't want to be stared at, he shouldn't have worn the costume.

    But that's a crappy excuse, anyway, considering he robbed the people as well.

    I knew that bear had a dark side.
