It was a bad market day for a thief who launched an operation in a phone shop as CCTV has exposed his crime.
The man, whose identity is not known, was captured on the footage stealing a mobile phone after tactically distracting the sales person.
In a one-minute attack, the thief managed to snatch one of the phones he was selecting from, and hid it under a newspaper he was carrying.
He continued his selection which threw suspicion off him, as the sales person was engaged on a phone.
