ARLINGTON (CBSDFW) - Arlington Police have released photos of two suspects wanted for taking three cell phones out of a victim's car.
How did the police get photos of the suspects you ask? Well, they decided to take selfies of themselves with their new toys, and unbeknownst to them, the photos were automatically being sent to the victim's computer the whole time.
In a statement posted on their Facebook page, the Arlington Police Department said, "the face you make the moment before you realize (or don't) the cell phones you just stole automatically sent those selfies to the victim's computer."
In one of the photos the male suspect appears to not know a picture is being taken of him. In another, the female suspect can be seen making a kissing face, while the male is on the phone (not known if it's one of the other two stolen cell phones). The other photos are taken by the woman of just herself.
If you have any information about these two suspects, please contact Det. David Frias at 817-459-6482.
