Library thief caught

A library thief was caught "read”-handed, reported anhuinews.com.

Zeng Bin was recently charged of stealing more than 400 ancient books from libraries over the course of three years.

The 38-year-old from Northwest China's Qinghai province ran an online store selling picture books.

After finding that ancient books were popular among online shoppers, Zeng started contacting libraries in different places to buy such books. But his offers were turned down.

The man then decided to steal them but was caught in the act last year.

In our final story, a dishonest cabbie is given away by iCloud photos.
