Busted! Video of Theft Posted on YouTube Leads to Arrest

A thief who posted a robbery on YouTube gets nabbed when his show-off video is found.

Everyone thinks they have something to be proud about these days, and they will go through rather crazy measures to boost their ego.

Well, the law enforcement agency officials are watching.

A man from Wales was arrested after he stole sunglasses off of a charity worker, The Sun reports. He posted the video of the “Wild specs robbery” on YouTube, but the video is gone now. (Gizmodo has what’s left of it.)

The 18-year-old man was issued a formal warning and was released after questioning.
