Mean streets
KIRKWALL, Scotland, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Police in the Orkney Islands north of Scotland are dealing with a crime wave -- at least four cars stolen since Jan. 1.
Investigators say the thieves' modus operandi is simple -- they get into unlocked vehicles and turn keys that have been left conveniently, if carelessly, in the ignition and then they drive away. The thieves are believed to be people on their way home from the pub, taking the dishonest way out of walking in the cold.
