Stolen lawnmower was doing 90kph
A thief was caught with an expensive robot lawnmower in his car after the mower alerted its owner it was doing 90kmp down the route départementale.
The man reportedly stole the mower from the premises of a firm in Indre-et-Loire after cutting a fence to get at it – but had not banked on it being equipped with a GPS tracker.
The owner followed its trace and alerted the gendarmes.
