A man has been accused of posing as a mannequin in a Warsaw shop window to steal jewellery after closing time.

The 22-year-old was pictured standing still and holding a bag in a window of the store, which police have not named.

Warsaw Police said that staff and shoppers failed to notice anything unusual as the man stood in the window, and blended in with several mannequins.
