One more thing to add to the bizarre things that people have done for love! A 60-year-old retired fire fighter who had no criminal record entered a supermarket near a local police station. He was reported to have a balaclava over his mouth and a firearm in his hand, and demanded all the money that the supermarket had. He also helped himself to a piece of Emmental cheese and wine until he got arrested, when he calmly walked with the police to their car, as if he wanted to be arrested. Strangely, it turned out to be exactly that!

The man’s court appointed lawyer mentioned in an interview that he was so desperate that he did not even want any money, but just wanted to see his grandson or at least go on a walk with him. He also added that the man was heartbroken after seeing his grandson in the waiting room with a broken tooth after being molested by the inmates. The 60-year-old was prosecuted for armed robbery, aggravated assault as well as rebellion.
