Man Who Dressed As A Woman Caught Robbing Men In Itaewon
|This is one of these crime stories just begging for a picture, but I could not find one unfortunately:
Yongsan police have arrested a man who dressed as a woman to steal money and valuables from drunken people in Itaewon.
The man, identified as Kim, 44, allegedly stole a credit card, an identification card and a smartphone from a man, identified as Choi, 46, when he fell asleep at 2 p.m. on Jan. 28.
The two had been drinking together at a pub in Itaewon, police said.
Kim allegedly stole 1.5 million won from three men in Itaewon and the Incheon area last December.
Police said Kim dressed like a woman and befriended men to steal money when they were drunk. He allegedly used stolen identity cards to obtain credit cards, and also bought smartphones. [Korea Times]
