Soccer clowns, drug dealers and Insta-muppets have been inadvertently saved from embarrassing themselves further by a thief snatching a silly watch from a store in Liverpool.
It is reported that a chap in his forties wearing a Moncler beanie hat, dark Ralph Lauren jacket, jeans and Nike Vapourmax track shoes, who appears not to have been asked to remove his mask for the camera, asked to try on a £22,600 Hublot "Spirit of Big Bang Meca 10 Black Magic 45mm."
Perhaps in shame, but more likely with criminal intent, he then ran out of the door with the watch on his wrist.
The watch was numbered 1435246.
Merseyside Police on 101 : crime ref number 20000734458
Anyone seeing the watch is advised to wash their eyes with fresh water until the stinging eases and then seek medical advice.
