Terror in Germany - committed by a coloured individual!

I found no English article, but this story is too good not to share.

Some days ago, a hideous crime shocked the nation of Germany, Europe. One of our oldest and most respected companies was the victim of a terrible theft.
Bahlsen, which produces the iconic Butterkeks , since 1891, used a 20kg cookie replica as a part of their company emblem. It is made of gold covered brass and was attached 5m above the ground on the facade of their headquarters in Hanover. A Bahlen employee saw it last on the 4th of January - it was noticed missing on January the 21st.

A 1000€ reward was offered by Bahlsen, for any hints to catch the thief.

Today, a dramatic event happened. A local Hanover newspaper received a letter from the thief, showing him with the evidence and stating his demands.

The person demands that Bahlsen should gift cookies to all children in a local hospital on one day in February. The good ones with milk chocolate, not the ones with dark chocolate, neither the ones without chocolate. He also demands a golden cookie for the children's cancer ward.
Furthermore, the 1000€ reward should be donated to a local animal shelter.
If Bahlsen would not follow his demands, the golden cookie will be put to Oscar into the trash bin. Signed by the cookie monster.

The evil, deceiving nature of this criminal becomes even more obvious when you look at his photo: to me he looks more like a blue Kermit than the Cookie Monster.
Bahlsen denied this being a PR stunt, btw.

(and yes, I have an alibi!)
