Child steals two smartphones

CCTV footage has appeared online showing a girl believed to be six stealing two cellphones in an unknown store.

In the video, recorded on February 26, the child appears to be waiting for an opportunity to grab the two phones while a woman who might be her mother distracts the two tellers, Highway Mailreported.

Shortly afterwards, the girl is seen quickly taking the phones, stuffing them in her underwear and then signaling to the woman, who casually walks out with two children.

It currently remains unclear where this incident took place and if any case has been opened.

Last year, CCTV footage emerged showing two women using a little girl to steal a handbag from a jewellery store.

The video, which went viral, shows two women walking into a shop with a child following them.

The women then pretend to enquire about jewellery as the child stands behind them, looking around the store.

As one of the women further distracts the jeweller by calling her closer, the little girl quickly crawls under the counter towards a desk, grabs a HANDBAG and crawls out.
