A video of a car thief being recorded in London without his knowledge has surfaced on YouTube, becoming an online hit.
The note on the YouTube video says: “My friend’s car was stolen (and recovered) recently.
“There was a dashcam in it, and it yielded these results…”
The driver can be heard describing the car on a phone and explaining where he was going to park it, saying: “I got it bruv, I’m gonna park it in my flats, I have never been in a car like this, this car will leave anything for dust.”
The thief was clearly excited about the car but unknown to him he was being recorded and the owner of the vehicle was able to locate the vehicle using GPS tracking data and went to reclaim it the following day.
Due to the fact that the owner was able to get his car back, police decided not to take further action to find out the identity of the thief.
