A suspected phone thief inadvertently exposed himself after attempting to unlock a stolen Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra in downtown Nairobi.
According to reports, the man allegedly snatched the high-end device from a woman identified as Ann Chege in the Grogan area, near the Eastleigh stage.
Unaware of the phone’s built-in security features, the suspect reportedly tried to unlock it, triggering the front camera, which captured clear images of his face.
The images have since surfaced online and are being widely circulated as efforts intensify to identify and apprehend him.
The incident was reported at Kamukunji Police Station, where investigations are currently underway.
Authorities are expected to rely on the captured images as key evidence in tracking down the suspect.
