People in Japan are now stealing toilet paper in midst of coronavirus crisis

As stores sold out of toilet paper, manufacturers released photos showing warehouses full of stock to allay public fears over a toilet tissue shortage.
Signs at stores asking people to refrain from taking toilet paper are now popping up all over the place.
▼ “Taking toilet paper out of customer toilets is prohibited.”▼ “A request to customers!!
Please don’t take the spare toilet paper rolls.”This sign says people need to ask to borrow a roll of toilet paper from store staff, reminding them that it must be returned afterwards.
This notice, at a Cainz Home home centre, says those found stealing toilet paper will be reported to police.
