Random Stories from Kigali (Part 2)

This happened on Saturday while Maddy and I were in town. We were in a shop downtown and all of a sudden there was a HUGE commotion outside. Someone had stolen something further up the hill from where we were and was running down the street. I have seen shoplifters in Canada running away. I once saw someone running away after stealing a purse in South Africa. In my experience generally most people just stand and watch. Not in Kigali. In Kigali when someone steals something EVERYONE chases them. Motto drivers kick at them as they pass, random people on the street yell and chase after the thief until they are caught. Maybe this is why the crime rate in Rwanda is so low?
