And finally… short shrift
Reading time: 1 minute
Three suspected burglars of short stature, all members of the self-styled ‘Irish mob midgets’, have been arrested after CCTV cameras filmed them illegally entering a house through a pet flap in the front door.
The three men are known members of the criminal organisation that operates in the Boston area.
Police believe the gang could be behind 55 other similar break-ins in the region.
Officer Ken Stevens of Boston Police Department, said: “They found a criminal use to their small-sized bodies and used them to break-in through chimneys, pet doors and small open windows.”
The Boston Chronicle reports that although the Irish mob midgets officially describe themselves as a “non-profit motorcycle enthusiast group for small people of the Boston area”, several high-profile members of the organization have been arrested in the past years on charges of drug-trafficking, arson and aggravated assault.
