The first sentence differences in translation

In the first sentence of this exercise, "the thief" has been translated as "le criminel" when I think "le voleur" would be a more accurate translation. Also in that first line, the punctuation in French is different from the original English (but that is probably less important)

This question relates to:French writing exercise "A dangerous criminal"
