    "IS THAT THE BEST YOU CAN DO"
    unbelivable!!!!!!!”

    “I thought by the picture that the robbery had been of a police officer's hat!

    What's someone doing in a playing field at 10.00pm anyway?”

    “So the police are looking for someone between 17 - 30 wearing dark clothing?
    Why don't they just say "we have no idea and will never catch them and to cover all bases we are looking for someone aged between 16 -80, Dark possibly light clothing who may be a man but could be a women"

    Yawn....”
