Cops report cigarettes, handbags are stolen

Any like this taken?

The overnight Major News Reports reveal quite a little crime wave with five write-ups making it to the police blotter. The pathetic state of things is captured well by the mugging of a 30 year old woman at Church and Wellesley Streets for a pack of cigarettes. The assailent left the purse behind. The loot was no doubt much pricier at Fashionably Yours at 709 Queen Street West where an early morning break-in August 5, 2014 yielded a bunch of handbags. No specifics are stated but ladies in the know will wonder if any of those Chanel quilted metallic jumbo flop bags (inset) were part of the swag. It’s a mere $2,900 on Queen West. Don’t let avarice get you if someone says they know where to buy them cheap. So easy to fence — and to be convicted.  Wednesday report for Tuesday, August 5, 2014
