At the end of last week, at the central market of Feodosia, a bag and a wallet with money were stolen from the well-known actress Lyubov Polishchuk. This was reported to the "proUA" correspondent by the Center for Public Relations of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine in Crimea.\n\nWhile strolling along the shopping rows, Lyubov Polishchuk was buying groceries. The actress was accompanied by a film crew. The operator's working camera and the "nanny's mom" known to everyone from the popular TV series attracted the attention of those around her. Gradually, a crowd of fans formed around the actress. However, when Lyubov Polishchuk decided to buy fish, she discovered that her purse with money had disappeared from her woven basket.\n\nPolice officers arrived at the scene. The head of the city police department, Lieutenant Colonel of Police Anatoliy Oleksandrovych Miroshnychenko, personally directed all duty units to solve this crime.\n\nPolice officers interviewed witnesses and citizens who surrounded the actress, and then watched the video footage shot by the operator at the market. After rewinding the tape and carefully examining the faces of the people near the actress, the district officer recognized a local resident well known to him from past "exploits," born in 1979, previously convicted of theft.\n\nWithin 40 minutes that the actress spent filling out official documents at the police station, criminal investigation officers found, detained, and delivered to the city police department the suspect in the theft. The detainee confessed to the crime, told where he had thrown away the celebrity's purse, and also returned 500 hryvnias. The rest of the money — a total of 100 US dollars and 110 hryvnias had been stolen — the criminal had managed to spend.\n\nCurrently, the thief is in custody; charges will be filed against him in the coming days.
