Two German teenagers in Berlin weren’t all that smart when they robbed another teenager.
The girls stole a 15 year olds shoes, money and mobile phone. I suppose they felt sorry for the girl though, because they ended up giving her their old mobile phone.
The two girls, both 17 years old, forgot that they old mobile contained photos of themselves smiling and striking poses.
Police were quick to publish the photos of the thieves online Tuesday in an effort to catch the girls. The girls ended up turning themselves in when their pictures appeared on the evening news.
“One girl was brought down by her father after he saw her on the television,” said police spokesman Frank Plewka. “Today the pictures were in the papers, so the father’s phone has been ringing all day, because everyone recognized them.”
Neither girl had ever been in trouble with the law before.
