In Moscow, an icon painter came to rob a liquor store with a toy machine

He remembered the "glorious" past - how he stormed in the 90s and was imprisoned for robbery.

Vadim Laptev spent a turbulent youth: in the 1990s he was imprisoned for robbery, rape and robbery. When he left, he began to draw icons on thieves' themes.

But the past didn't let go.

And recently he remembered the past and broke into the alcohol store. He took a toy machine with him and demanded that the seller ship him alcohol and daily earnings. His plastic automatic did not frighten anyone, but just in case, the police were called.

Now the 61-year-old "experienced" can again go to the zone under the article on robbery. And get inspiration for new icons.
