The police have just investigated and cleared up the case of teenagers who became friends on Facebook and then made an appointment to go steal property together.

On the afternoon of November 7, the Investigation Police Agency of Hue City (Thua Thien - Hue Province) announced that the unit had just investigated and cleared up a teenage gang that specialized in committing thefts at local homes and at Hue Central Hospital.

3 out of 8 teenagers who committed many thefts were cleared by Hue City Police.

This gang has 8 members, including: Nguyen Van Ut, Truong Minh Hoang, Le Thang, Le Tat Vinh, Le Thi Dieu My, Pham Thi Cam Van, Le Ton Quynh Anh (from 14 to 17 years old, all residing in Hue city) and Le Van Hung (residing in Thuy Bang commune, Huong Thuy town).

Having dropped out of school very early and being addicted to online games, the suspects became friends on Facebook, then rented a motel together to go steal property.

Recently, in the early morning of November 1, Ut and Hoang discovered a Wave motorbike with license plate number 75H4-0220 parked in the yard of a pagoda on Dien Bien Phu Street, Hue City, so they sneaked in and stole it. They then used this motorbike to steal another Wave motorbike and another Sirius motorbike.

At the same time, 3 young women in the group including My, Van, Quynh Anh went to the pediatrics department of Hue Central Hospital to steal 1 tablet and 4 cell phones from patients.

Evidence of a theft by the subjects.

On the morning of November 3, these 3 subjects continued to go to the pediatric department of Hue Central Hospital to steal a handbag containing a motorbike key and a motorbike parking ticket, so they had the intention of stealing another motorbike but were unable to do so.

After the theft, the gang rented a motel in Phu Thuong commune (Phu Vang district) and was discovered and arrested by Phu Vang district police and handed over to Hue city police for handling.

At the police station, the suspects confessed that they sold all the stolen property to play games and rented a motel to live together.

The police have handed over the above subjects to their families for management and required them to appear when ordered by the police.
