The incident occurred on the night of August 13 in a grocery supermarket in the Sviatoshynskyi district. The offender was detained by patrol police officers.

According to the investigation, the 26-year-old local resident decided to rob the store using an unusual method of disguise. For this, he climbed into a barrel of tar, which was on a construction site, hoping to blend in with the darkness.

After that, the man kicked open a glass door and entered the premises, where he put cigarettes, juice, sweets, oranges, grapefruits, and wet wipes into a bag. The facility's security guards prevented him from taking more, and he fled from them.
