[자막뉴스] Yongsan-gu residents report rainstorm… a crime caught on CCTV

A woman was standing near the wall of a house.

He stretches his arm up and pulls something down.

Even after coming out of the residential area, he looked around for a while and wandered around.

I’m moving my steps towards somewhere again.

This is a CCTV video of a woman closing the gas valve of a city gas pipe in Yongsan-gu district, Seoul around 7:00 in the morning.

In residential areas, city gas pipes are exposed to the outside.

The suspect deliberately locked the gas valves within reach while going around restaurants and residential areas in Yongsan-gu.

Nearby restaurants had to close their morning business without knowing why.
