To Catch a Thief

An all-girl gang of teenage apartment burglars has been arrested in Santiago, Chile.
According to the BBC, the girls "were infamous for climbing up buildings in Santiago to burgle luxury apartments... Lurking in the gardens of expensive parts of Santiago, the four girls hurled ropes and hooks up to balcony railings, hauled themselves up and walked through the flat windows. They then walked out of the buildings as if they were visitors."

Incredibly, two of the girls were "heavily pregnant," yet "they still managed to climb up to the third floor of some flats."
