New tricks? Nairobi thief dressed in school uniform roughed up by mob

5th October, 2018

Thursday, October 5, was bad day in office for one  ‘street thief’ who was caught red-handed, trying to snatch a phone from passers by.

According to an amateur video seen by Standard Digital Videos, the said thief had invented a classic way of conning people along the streets of Nairobi, by disguising as a high school student.

At the time of his arrest by a visibly angry but forgiving mob, the young man was dressed in a white shirt that was neatly tucked in a black trouser, with a neatly fastened maroon tie, drawing the picture of a well-mannered and obedient student.

According to one of the mob, the ‘student’ stole a phone from a lady near Jamia Mosque but the exercise was thwarted.

In the video, the ‘student’ had a hard time proving to the mob that he is indeed a student, and which particular city school does he attend to.

It was a bad day in office, yes, but definitely a lucky day for him as the mob did not dissent on him.

So beware of conmen disguised as students along the streets of Nairobi.
