BERLIN (Reuters) – Police in northern Germany are searching for a man who tried to walk out of a supermarket with 68 tubes of toothpaste stuffed into his clothing.

"We don't know if he had bad teeth," a police spokeswoman in Rostock said Friday.

Noticing his bulging jacket, a store worker grabbed the man when he refused to stop and the tubes of toothpaste spilled all over the floor, police said.

The thief struck the woman in the face and ran out.

It wasn't a clean getaway.

[Ban Hammer 13,400]

the perp just brushed off the store workers.

[Nagishkaw 510]

As they were just crowned as filling in.

any more news to fill us in on? did they catch him and give him a cavity search?

[Nagishkaw 510]

Without a dentist, Im sure.

[Ban Hammer 13,400]

when they catch him, he's sure to be drilled at his interrogation

[Nagishkaw 510]

He better brace himself.
