To Would-Be Thieves Everywhere:

I give you How Not To Steal a Sidekick (a type of mobile phone).

Really, this is amusing and while sickeningly appauling (the story that is) this is the shotgun approach to justice in our modern world. I can appreciate it and think, good for him! Get the word out. In the face of uncontrovertable evidence (such as the thieves taking pictures of themselves), they should have to live with the outcome of their actions.

So, if you steel or “find” a mobile phone, use it, then threaten its owner with physical violence, then be prepared to suffer any and all consiquences.
