Here's one for you DM's that want to have a good old fashion foot chase, though crowded areas.
The players are walking around the town when they hear someone shouting, "SOMEBODY STOP THAT THIEF". That someone will then point at a very obvious shifty looking person. That person will then run the in the opposite direction. If the players decided to intervene, the thief will try & eluded them (chaos insures).
If the players are able to catch up to the thief, they will notice that they are just a child & that they only stole some food from the person of before. It is now up to the players on what to do next.
