A "hot tub gang" is believed to appear in Lancashire these days as the mysterious burglars took a dip in victims' hot tubs before breaking into their home to steal possessions。

　　This week the hot tub pranksters had the nerve to take their outdoor bath as Ashley and Cherie Deakin slept upstairs at around 1:30 am。

　　The burglars then forced open the back door of the detached home and stole property including a TV, mobile phones, a laptop and a wallet。

　　Cherie Deakin said: "We have been shocked at how cheeky it is. It is so unusual having people trying to sneak on to your property to use the hot tub. It is bizarre."

　　"We went round to our neighbors and their hot tub had also been used and one found two pairs of wet underpants in their garden."

　　英国《每日电讯报》15日报道称，近日一伙“泡澡帮”在英国兰开郡出没，他们通常现在受害人家中的浴缸中泡个澡，然后才入室行窃。

　　就在本周，这伙“泡澡帮”竟于凌晨1点30分左右，趁阿什利•迪肯和谢丽•迪肯在楼上熟睡之机，在楼下泡了个澡。

　　随后他们强行打开另外一件房子后门，偷走了迪肯夫妇的电视机、手机、电脑以及钱包。

　　谢丽•迪肯说道：“我们对他们的厚颜无耻深感震惊。没有几个人胆敢在偷窃时还能想着泡澡。这太怪异了。”

　　“我们从邻居那里得知，他们的浴缸同样难以幸免，其中一家还在他们的院子里发现了两条湿漉漉的短裤。”
