A woman in her 60s who unauthorizedly cut and took rose flowers and branches from a residential area in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, which is famous as an SNS photo spot, has been referred to the Suwon District Public Prosecutors Office.
The Suwon Paldal Police Station in Gyeonggi Province announced that it forwarded woman A in her 60s on charges of theft in mid-August.
A is accused of cutting and taking around 10 rose flowers and branches planted on the wall of a house in Haenggung-dong, Paldal-gu, Suwon, around midnight on June 24.
During police questioning, A admitted to the charges, stating, "I wanted to propagate and grow the roses at home by cutting and planting them."
A's husband in his 60s, who was present at the scene at the time of the crime, was also booked on theft charges, but police decided not to forward him, concluding that there was insufficient evidence to prove he conspired in the crime.
