Mong Kok mobile phone thief took advantage of a small shop to steal his mobile phone twice

Mobile phone thieves are haunting Mong Kok, burying their hands in street shops to “sweep the goods”! A reader broke the news to Dongwang today (18th) that the incident happened in a siuwei shop in Mong Kok. Yesterday (17th) at about 9 o’clock, the siuwei shop was about to open, and the clerk put the mobile phone on the counter table. The gate is only “half gate” open. Just as he was burying his head in his work, unexpectedly, a mobile phone thief “squeaked food” and reached out to the counter to steal the mobile phone from outside the store.

The siuwei shop clerk came back to his senses and found that the mobile phone was missing, and immediately checked the CCTV footage to reveal the incident. The clerk went to the police station to report the crime after work, and carefully checked the CCTV records, and was even more surprised that the suspect was the same as the mobile phone theft incident in the store in February of the same year, in terms of body shape, appearance, time and method of committing the crime. He does not rule out that the mobile phone thief is a “reciprocal criminal”. Since he acquired it in February, he has learned the taste of the essence and lingers on the streets more on weekdays.

The suspect took the mobile phone (circled in red) as his own.
