WICHITA — A man and woman decided to give the phrase "dumpster diving" a new twist over the weekend, crawling inside one on North Waco so they could be alone.

But while they were engaged in what Wichita police described as "an intimate moment," they were robbed by a man armed with a pocket knife.

It all unfolded shortly after 6 p.m. Saturday in the 700 block of North Waco, police said, when the man and woman, both 44, crawled into a dumpster for privacy.

A short time later, a 59-year-old man and his 64-year-old companion interrupted the couple inside the dumpster.

With the older man encouraging him, the 59-year-old man pulled out a pocket knife and took shoes, jewelry and the 44-year-old man's wallet.

Police were notified, and officers found the two suspects a short time later. The stolen property was recovered.

The reporter also does a weather blog "Finger on the Weather"

We are making assumptions here at work that these must have been homless people, as the theft involved shoes. The humping couple could have been married, but not to each other. We again feel they were homless otherwise they would have just parked their car like normal alduterers. Oh, and that part of town isn't the best place to get caught with your pants down.
