One was responsible for taking out parts from parked vehicles, while the other suspect’s job was to distribute and sell the stolen parts,” said police spokesman First Lt. Nawaf Al-Bouq.
According to Al-Bouq, the suspects used to sell the parts to car shops around the city and build business relations with a number of traders in and around the city. Parts stolen included tires, tire rims, headlights and taillights. “Their arrest follows phone calls to the police by several victims.
Security officers tracked the duo and arrested it as part of a coordinated raid,” said Al-Bouq. Both suspects admitted to committing at least six acts of theft from vehicles in several neighborhoods in the past week.
