200 gold plastic rings were stolen by Moldova in Turkey.
A man broke into a jewelry store in Istanbul and stole rings, three gold earrings and three bracelets from the shop window. A day after the crime was committed, a 32-year-old citizen of Moldova, who arrived in Turkey a month ago as a tourist, tried to fly away, but failed.
The man was arrested at the airport. The investigation showed that 200 rings, which the stranger thought were gold, turned out to be plastic samples for display. However, other stolen jewelry was genuine and valued at nearly $3,000.
The thief was taken into custody.
