“Don’t do it!”
Police up in Antwerp are repeating a warning for visitors to Christmas markets: beware of pickpockets!
Police spokesman Wouter Bruyns: “When people are having fun they sometimes forget to wear their purse or wallet on their person. People put handbags and rucksacks away in a corner when they have had a drink. Don’t do it! Always wear your wallet on your person. Don’t take valuables with you either. You don’t need an iPad on the Christmas market.”
