An 88-year-old man made a fatal mistake when he entered his house in the Derveni district (Corinthia), because he immediately went into the living room, forgetting to close the door behind him. The unknown person, who discovered the oversight, made his way into the house and grabbed the wallet that the old man had left on the table at the entrance.
