China News Service, Hangzhou, July 14th (Guo Qiyu, Su Lihao), a 22-year-old lad, Zheng, who bought something at a convenience store, robbed the convenience store of 300 yuan with a toothbrush because he had no money to pay. The reporter learned from the Shangcheng District People's Court in Hangzhou on the 14th that Zheng was sentenced to three years in prison for robbery and a fine of 5,000 yuan.

  It is understood that Zheng graduated from high school to Hangzhou after graduating from high school. He did not have a fixed residence and lived on his family. One night in March this year, Zheng went to a convenience store in Shangcheng District, took cigarettes, snacks, etc. to prepare a scan code payment, but found that he had used up all the money he wanted from home, and now he is penniless.

  At 23:00 on the same day, there were no more people in the convenience store. After lingering outside the checkout counter for a long time, Zheng Mou felt a disposable toothbrush from his pocket, and started to use the toothbrush to rob the cashier. Zheng broke into the cash register area, strangled the cashier's neck with her arm, put the toothbrush on Ms. Yang's back neck, and threatened the other party to take out her wallet and mobile phone.

  Ms. Yang mistakenly thought that the toothbrush was a knife, and opened the cash register. Zheng took away all the snacks and cigarettes in the cash register and more than 300 yuan, and then took a taxi to escape from the scene. Then Ms. Yang called the police.

  After receiving the police, the police locked Zheng's hotel based on monitoring. At about 2 a.m., the police arrested Zheng at the hotel and found snacks and cigarettes and other items stolen from a convenience store on his bed.

  When meeting with the lawyer, Zheng said that he had divorced from his childhood and had lived with his father. Daddy ignored his education and life, and the two had little communication. The robbery was just because there was no money for accommodation and meals, and there was no awareness of the social harm of this criminal act.

  After trial, the court held that the defendant Zhengmou violently seized the property of others. Although the amount of robbery was not large and no casualties were caused, his behavior had constituted a crime of robbery. He made the above judgment.

  It is reported that Zheng was detained in administrative detention for theft when he was 16 years old, but his family did not attract much attention. After the trial, the judge again educated him, "Unfortunately, the family cannot be a reason for crime, and independence and self-reliance is the right way." (End)
