Playing indoor soccer at Kaleen one night, the police came in and asked for one of my team mates. Some Kaleen drop kicks had attempted to steal his wheels.

That was only a couple of weeks ago.
It’s uncanny how many crime-related stories one suburb can produce! Way to represent my neck of the woods, scumbags!
