Stealing Flowers for Love
Who would have thought that thievery can be romantic? Recently one gentleman stole a bouquet of flowers to apologize for a night he had spent in jail.
Neil McMillan was arrested and spent a night in custody – this is why he felt that he needed to steal them and give them to his sweet heart Michelle Robertson. He snatched the bouquet on his way home from court — it cost about 6.99 GBP — after which he was arrested once again.
McMillan went from spending one night in jail to a sentence of three years. Not only did he admit to stealing the flowers, but a Chinese takeaway truck robbery as well.
Lawyer Billy Somerville said: “He had enough money to pay for the flowers, so whether he intended to pay for them but changed his mind I don’t know.”
