IT’S bad enough being abandoned (抛弃) in the middle of a date. But one woman suffered a double blow when she discovered her car had been stolen by her date. Michael Pratt of Wesley Chapel, Florida, US and his date were at the movies earlier this month when he said he needed to get something from the car. His date handed him her car keys. He didn’t return. When she called him later, he reportedly laughed and told the woman he had stolen her car.
