admitting he stole a company president's wallet
containing 50,000 yen during an interview
earlier this month.
Shogo Takeda, 24, stole the wallet during an
interview at an elevator maintenance company
in Yokohama. He allegedly took advantage of
easy access to the president's bag when he
briefly left the room.
The president noticed his wallet was missing
after the interview and reported the incident to
police, suspecting Takeda had taken it as the
pair were alone in the office during the
interview.
Takeda was tracked down via contact details,
including his address and phone number, on his
resume.
