Polish Man Arrested for Posing as Mannequin to Steal Jewelry and Clothes from Warsaw Stores

Suspect faces 10 years in prison for disguise heists, including stealing clothes, jewelry and food after hours in shopping centers.

A 22-year-old man in Warsaw, Poland was arrested for posing as a mannequin in a storefront window, using the disguise to steal jewelry from stores after hours.
While the stores were closed, he also allegedly changed into new clothes, ate at a shopping center's bar, and stole money from cash registers in two separate occasions.
His crime spree ended when he was spotted and apprehended by security officials, who proceeded to alert the police. The suspect was charged with theft and burglary.
The man's unusual strategy is seen as an example of the Dunning-Kruger effect by social psychologists, showing a level of incompetence that undermines the perceived success of the misdemeanor.
If convicted, the suspect could face up to 10 years in prison. The man has also been accused of committing similar thefts at another location.
