Arrested subject stole electric bike to get money to play video games

(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of August 1, the electric bicycle worth tens of millions of dong and the thief were brought to the commune People's Committee headquarters by the police of Nghia Tien commune (Thai Hoa town).

Previously, on the night of July 28, Pham Thi Khanh Linh, an 11th grade student at Thai Hoa Town High School, went to her aunt Le Thi Binh's house in Hamlet 6 (Nghia Tien Commune) to play and sleep. Linh left her electric bicycle worth more than 10 million VND in the yard to charge. In the morning, Linh discovered that the bicycle was gone and the locked gate had been broken.

Subject Dung reported to the police

Upon receiving the report, Nghia Tien commune police screened the suspects in the area and found Nguyen Manh Dung (born in 1994), also living in hamlet 6, Nghia Tien commune.

This is a person with special circumstances (father died of a stroke, mother worked abroad for many years without returning, older sister and younger sister also work far away), Dung has no one to manage him, lives a vagrant life and is addicted to electronics.

Using professional measures, discovering Nguyen Manh Dung playing video games at a shop in an alley, Nghia Tien commune police invited the subject to the headquarters. Dung confessed that because he had no money to play video games, he wandered around at night and discovered Ms. Le Thi Binh's house with an electric bike parked in the neighborhood, so he broke the gate lock and took the bike away.

After taking the car, Dung took it to his grandmother's house to store, but not feeling secure, he sent it to Nghia Thang commune (next to Nghia Tien commune).

Nguyen Khanh Linh received back her lost electric bike.

The case is currently being handled in accordance with the law. The bicycle that the subject stole has been handed over to its owner, Pham Thi Khanh Linh, by the Nghia Tien commune police.
