Thief couldn’t be arrested because he ran onto French soil at port of Dover
The Metro says A pub landlord watched the man who had stolen her rare guitar sail away on a ferry because both the British and French police had refused to arrest him.
The thief ‘committed the perfect crime’ by taking £5,000 worth of equipment from the Castle Inn – the ‘last pub in England’ – before immediately leaving UK soil by going through customs.
He was still at the port in Dover with the things he’d taken when the landlord realised what had happened.
But English police refused to arrest him because he was already on the French side of passport control and waiting for a ferry.
