Feeling furious after her boyfriend failed to keep an appointment, a school student gave vent to her anger by stealing clothes from a store.

The store's manager found that several clothes were missing after a young woman aged about 17 had paid a visit. She caught up with the young woman and discovered the clothes in her bag.

The young shoplifter claimed that she committed the theft as she was depressed by her boyfriend's failure to turn up for a date.
