I hope the magistrate has a sense of humour and gives the thief 80 hrs of community service...emptying dog litter bins from the town's parks.
Own up then...

You don't see any jokes about white dog shit these days either.

Do they still do them? I thought it was something to do with dogs diets in the 70's. There used to be loads of white dog shit about. Perhaps there were more poodles back then?

I know what you mean. There was loads of it about at one stage. Must be since IAMS came on the scene.

Maybe they have other, more substantial crime reports from the same day involving a suspect of similar description? Maybe he attempted to rob other people but they just didn't bother reporting it.
Maybe he's a well known local shit (no pun intended) who they'd be only too delighted to get into court for attempted theft, no matter what he actually ended up stealing.
Just because someone doesn't actually get away with something doesn't mean they should be ignored, as they're probably quite likely to try it again, and succeed. I know what you're trying to say, but presumably the little weasel didn't actually know it was a bag of crap, he was hoping to get something worth having.

I just hope that he put his hand inside the bag to grab the contents before having a look.

That's all very logical, but the bottom line is police time spent on this is police time that could have been spent on solving an actual crime.
Anyway, you shouldn't have to be Sherlock Holmes to track down a black BMX bagsnatcher in Tarring - it's not exactly LA South Central.

Police are now bound by the Policing Pledge. All offences/ reported incidents have to be investigated. Victim has to be updated, case has to be looked at individually, however tedious.

Total arse, old chap, six years in and never done a speed trap in my life. And nor have 90% of my colleagues. Only the traffic geeks do that side of things. But don't let that get in the way of your persecution complex
By the way, if someone tries to break into your house but doesn't actually manage to get in for whatever reason, do you want the police to ignore that too? Presumably the woman in this particular case felt sufficiently concerned about the lad on the bike's intentions to go to the trouble of reporting it. What do you want them to tell her? "Jog on love, it's not worth the trouble"?
