iPhone Thieves Beware: The Phone Can Take Your Photo And Send It To Cops
The above photos are of the teens suspected of being in possession of a stolen iPhone 6 — pilfered from the tracks of the southbound 2 train at the Atlantic Avenue-Barclays station.
According to police, on Friday, January 8, 2016 at about 3:30am, a 33-year-old female dropped her iPhone 6 onto the tracks and then left the area to report it. The phone was gone when she returned.
However, the phone’s data was still accessible to the victim through her Apple account, and she was able to retrieve these photos that the suspects allegedly took of themselves with her phone.
The NYPD is asking the public’s assistance in identifying the suspects wanted for petit larceny.
Anyone with information in regard to this incident is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-577-TIPS. You can also submit tips online or via text to 274637 (CRIMES) then entering TIP577.
