Armed Thieves Steal Truckload Of Toilet Paper In Hong Kong Amid Worsening Shortage Of Basic Goods
Looks like the sh*t is really about to hit the fan in Hong Kong…and we mean that literally.
In a shocking indication of just how bad shortages of basic goods have gotten as mainland China expands its lockdown to more than 700 million people and Hong Kong closes some of its borders, a gang of armed thieves in Hong Kong stole a truckload of toilet paper in a daring robbery last night.
Police say the truck driver was taken by surprise and held up by a man with a knife, while two others loaded the toilet paper into their getaway vehicle.
Wow, I thought I needed tp bad…#stolentp #hongkongtp #coronavirus #toiletpaper

Don’t worry: We suspect they may have left a “paper” trail.
