"Tech thief"
"Painstakingly" lockpicking theft
It is difficult to escape the "sharp eyes" of the police
"There are people in my house, come and take a look!" Early in the morning of April 15, Mr. Huang, a citizen, called the police. According to recollection, at about 4 o'clock in the morning that day, he heard the "click" sound of the lock of the anti-theft door, got up and looked at the door locked well, the door to the living room was ajar, thinking that it might be forgotten to close it at night, and then climbed into bed in a daze, only to find that the handbag ran from the living room to the foyer in the morning, and the more than 2,000 yuan in cash was gone. Soon after the house moved in, the newly changed door lock, the police carefully investigated according to the various information provided by the parties, and preliminarily determined that it was a case of theft through professional and technical unlocking.
According to the police of the Fourth Criminal Investigation Squadron of the Chengyang Public Security Bureau, because there are many surrounding communities under construction, the roads are horizontal and vertical, and it is late at night, which brings difficulties to video tracking. The police continued to expand the search until a man caught the attention of the police. His route showed unusual signs of detours, turnarounds, and even crossings of the green belt, and it didn't look like drunkenness or morning exercise. After more than three hours of investigation, seven people's police auxiliary police officers finally locked the suspect in a small hotel near Shuangyuan Road. At about 8 o'clock in the morning of the 15th, the suspect Mo was arrested and brought to justice, and the police found more than 2,000 yuan of stolen money and a gold necklace of unknown origin.
It turned out that Mo, who was from Guangxi, had many previous convictions for theft, and after discovering the importance of a "skill", he began to apprentice, self-taught, and practiced lock-picking skills hard, and then wandered around to commit crimes. He also used to make gold rings from stolen gold goods and wear them himself. At present, the criminal suspect Mo has been detained by the Chengyang police in accordance with the law, and the case is being further investigated and investigated.
"Perseverance Thief"
"Soft spot" for batteries
It is pulled out from 100 hours of surveillance
"The electric car battery I parked downstairs was stolen!" Recently, Mr. Tian, a citizen, called the police, saying that the electric car seat he parked in the carport of the community was pried open, and the battery inside was missing. After receiving the police, the Third Criminal Investigation Squadron of the Chengyang Public Security Bureau, together with the Zhengyang Road Police Station, immediately launched an investigation. Since the informant's electric car had been parked in the carport for about four days, it was not clear exactly what day it was stolen. "If the car is lost, it is easy to find it through monitoring, but the electric vehicle battery is lost, and it is not obvious from the monitoring, we can only look at it second by second. The police said.
After patiently combing and combing, the police finally locked down the suspicious person after 100 hours of surveillance video. Because he was wearing a mask and a cap when committing the crime, this added a certain degree of difficulty to the investigation of the case. So the police continued to track along the suspect's escape route, and found that the suspect rode a tricycle into a community in Xichenghui after committing the crime, and through comparison, it was found that one of the suspects was actually an "old acquaintance" Wu. The police handling the case immediately studied and judged the trajectory of his activities, and arrested Wu who was about to go out in a community in Xichenghui on April 8. According to his confession, the police recovered five groups of stolen batteries at the scrap station.
Stealing batteries is blocked in the quilt
After investigation, the suspect often finished the Internet in the middle of the night and came out to "do a vote", specifically focusing on the battery. He sneaked into a nearby parking shed and stole the battery by lifting the car seat and smashing the lock. Through research and judgment, the police finally confirmed that the previous thefts were also carried out by him.
Caught stealing batteries
"Hard-working thief"
Set an alarm for the early hours of the morning theft
After 3 hours, he was blocked in the bedding
Early in the morning of 8 April, Mr. Wang, who lives on Yinhe Road in Chengyang, was about to send his children to school when he found that the door of his private car parked at the entrance of the community was hidden and the co-pilot's storage box and trunk had been turned over. Upon counting, his spare mobile phone, cigarettes and some change were stolen.
The police who rushed to the scene to the police then received reports of theft of items in the car one after another, and the area where the crime occurred was concentrated along Yinhe Road. The modus operandi was the same, the windows were not smashed and the locks were not broken, and the target was a private car parked in a remote place on the side of the road. Because the time of the crime was in the early hours of the night, one of the surveillance cameras could only see the figure of a suspect from a distance, and the detailed physical characteristics could not be determined. The police changed their thinking about handling the case, repeatedly verified the people entering and exiting the line through reverse video tracking, and finally locked on a man who had left on a bicycle.
After non-stop research and tracking, at about 10 o'clock on April 8, the police successfully arrested the criminal suspect Meng in a rented house in Xiazhuang Ancient Town. In order to carry out the theft, the suspect set an alarm clock at two o'clock in the morning, and came back to make up for sleep in the morning, but was unexpectedly blocked by the police in the bed, Meng wanted to quibble after seeing the police, but in the face of the mobile phone and other stolen goods found out, he had to confess all the facts of his theft. At present, the suspect has been taken compulsory measures by the police in accordance with the law, and the case is being further investigated.
