A shocking and bizarre crime has taken place in Bengaluru overnight - a man allegedly broke into a mobile phone shop, dropped his pants and made off with over Rs 25 lakh worth of phones.
According to reports, the thief walked into the shop dressed head to toe in black, with a mask covering his face and a flashlight in his hand. But he apparently forgot to wear one crucial item of clothing. CCTV footage shows the man strolling openly among the shelves and displays, confidently collecting several smartphones. But he is captured doing something very unexpected - he steals the items, but not before taking off his pants.
The man managed to escape with the loot without being detected by any of the security personnel in the area. Reports suggest that he made his getaway on a motorcycle that was waiting for him just outside the shop. It is still not clear exactly how he managed to remove his pants without triggering any alarms or catching the attention of the shop's staff or customers.
This unusual heist is another reminder of the unconventional and daring methods criminals can use to commit robberies. While the Bengaluru man has succeeded in stealing the phones, he won't be able to escape the long arms of the law for too long, and hopefully, his pantslessness will help aid the identification process.
