On playgrounds ownership is a relative term. Today though Karl and his buddy Julian engaged in some outright thievery as these surveillance photos prove. They didn't just innocently grab somebody's toy to get lost in some child's play. This was clearly a deliberate and premeditated action. With Julian as the lookout and Karl as the getaway cyclist this could even be defined as organized crime.
When the coveted tricycle was brought to a distant corner of the playground Karl sure made it look like he'd owned it since his bassinet days. At last they were found out and had to make their way home on the backs of their mothers' bikes in shame. Well, it might be a while before Karl will be a proud owner of a basic colored tricycle. That's the downside of having a winter birthday - it's always sleds and skis and mittens.
