A short crime story written for the 55 word story contest. But what's the real crime?
         "If only I could find something good here," thought the burglar as he rummaged. "Aha, perfect," he said aloud while grabbing the package. Just then he heard the sirens and he ran.

         "Honey, I'm home," he said while catching his breath. "Grab the kids, I brought food."

         The package of potato chips was quickly devoured.
