Man steals 5,000 pairs of shoes to savor the odor
NAGOYA -- A man suspected of stealing about 5,000 pairs of shoes in order to enjoy their odor has been arrested, police said Wednesday.
"I was enjoying their smell," Masashi Kamata, 28, a resident of Moriyama-ku, Nagoya, was quoted as telling investigators. "Indoor shoes for school sexually stimulate me. I couldn't throw away the shoes I obtained." (Mainichi) November 1, 2006
I get the feeling this kind of thing could only happen in Japan.
