The sirens blared as the they drove by the alley. All they saw was a couple garbage cans and a cat. He couldn't be stupid enough to hide in the garbage, so they continued looking for him elsewhere. As soon as the last of the police drove by, the garbage lid lifted to reveal the one they were looking for. He stumbled out, carelessly dropping the lid, and ran. The garbage can tipped and rolled for a while. The noise echoed through the streets. It seemed as if he was in a panic, running aimlessly through the streets but he had a plan. All he had to do was get to the convenient store. Once he got there, everything he had done would have been worth it. Best of all he would get away with everything. It was the perfect plan, he was amazed that no one had ever thought of it before. Suddenly, a cop spotted him as he ran through the streets. The cop seemed to drive recklessly as if he didn't mind running him over. The cops must have been agitated. Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to rob a bank, steal two purses, pick-pocket a wallet, and now parade down the street in nothing but a pair of socks. It didnt matter, they were too late. He ran into the store scaring the few customers that were inside. One man hid behind his wife as he ran passed them. He shuffled through one shelf until, finally, he found what he was looking for. The cops froze in the entrance unsure of what he had in his hands. As he turned slowly he opened his hand to reveal what was going to redeem him. Mentos. With a big smile he ate one and decided to walk out of the store. The cops laughed and put their guns down. The helicopter was sent back to headquarters and news reporters left. Everyone slept better that night knowing it was just a big misunderstanding.
