 Criminal of the week-  A North Carolina man drove a stolen truck to steal a forklift. He made a bold getaway using the stolen forklift to carry the stolen truck. Deputies in Rowan County, North Carolina responded to an unusual call on Sunday, March 30th. Deputies were called to Karriker Farm Road to the report of a stolen forklift. Witnesses told deputies that a man (later identified as Richard Webb) had arrived to the property in a Ford Ranger. They said Webb exited the vehicle and proceeded to steal the fork lift. Amazingly, while making his getaway in the forklift, Mr. Webb scooped up the Ford Ranger and beat a hasty retreat with both vehicles.

Putin promises Africa free grain supply to tackle food insecurity

President Vladimir Putin has pledged to deepen relations with African countries across several spheres, promising a free supply of grains to the continent to tackle food insecurity.

Putin made this known on Monday in a statement themed ā€œRussia and Africa: Joining Efforts for Peace, Progress and a Successful Futureā€ ahead of the second Russia-Africa Summit and Russia-Africa Economic and Humanitarian Forum.

The Summits scheduled to hold on July 27 and July 28 in St. Petersburg, Russia, seek to strengthen relations between Russia and Africa, outlining priority cooperation areas for the coming decades of the 21st century.

Putin stated that Russia attaches great importance to the Summits, with expectations of adopting a comprehensive Declaration, a number of joint statements and approval of the extension of the Russia ā€“ Africa Partnership Forum Action Plan to 2026.

According to Putin, Russia has strong, deep roots, with Russiaā€™s support to African countries in education, infrastructure, power, health, defence and security, among others, since the times of the Soviet Union until the present day.

This is also as he pledged Russiaā€™s continuous and free supply of grain to the continent to tackle food insecurity in some countries of Africa, understanding the importance of uninterrupted food supplies for the socio-economic development and political stability of the African states.

Putin, however, noted that Russia would be boycotting the ā€œgrain dealā€ it hitherto facilitated, which ended on July 18, for the failure of the deal to meet humanitarian purposes and supply the grains to Africa free of charge.
