In the CCTV footage released by Mr. A, an elderly woman in an electric wheelchair stops when she sees a bag of clothes delivered in front of Mr. A’s store while walking down the street. She tries to pick up the bag but, unable to lift it with one hand due to its weight, she gets off the wheelchair, lifts the bag with both hands, places it on the back seat, and leaves the scene.

After reporting the damage to the police, Mr. A personally searched for the culprit. During this process, he received a message from the post office delivery worker responsible for his store, saying, "(The culprit) seems to be an elderly woman who runs a street stall." Mr. A found the elderly woman and asked if she had taken his bag of clothes. The woman reportedly smiled slyly and said, "How did you find me?"

When Mr. A asked, "Do you know how much all this is worth?" the woman replied, "No wonder the clothes were all new. They looked nice," according to reports. Mr. A retrieved the clothes from the woman, warned her, "Don’t do this again," and then closed the theft case. Mr. A said, "Looking back now, her words were so absurd," and added, "Fortunately, the items were returned without any damage."

Netizens who saw this expressed various reactions, such as "I suspect this is not the first time she has stolen," "She shouldn’t be let off. She must be severely punished," "Does she think crime is a joke?" and "People don’t change."
