A dry-cleaning shop owner in Papua New Guinea has found a unique way of encouraging thieves to clean up their behaviour: giving them a steam cleaning. Police in the northeast coastal town of Lae said a 20-year-old man suffered burns and scalding to his abdomen, chest and back after the owner turned a steam cleaner on him after he was caught stealing pants worth 14 kina (2.80 pounds). "The owner has done this to many people already," police spokesman Nema Mondiai said. Police seemed unconcerned about the radical punishment and released the thief after being assured he had learned his lesson.

Pepsi Theft No Accident
Ohio Police Say Man Leaving Store With Pepsi Packs Was No Accident
Police say a security tape supports their claim: this Pepsi theft was no accident.
Thomas Sturgis, 50, of Cleveland, told WEWS-TV on Tuesday that after paying $157.20 for groceries Saturday night at Giant Eagle he forgot about a $4 case of soda under the cart and was arrested for petty theft.
But Brooklyn Chief Mark Tenaglia said Wednesday that security video shows Sturgis using a self-checkout with no items on the bottom of his cart.
Tenaglia says a second video camera shows Sturgis loading six 12-packs of Pepsi into his cart before he exited the store. The total value of the soda was $21.54 with tax.
