Hidden cameras catch cell phone thieves

HUBER HEIGHTS, Ohio (WDTN) - A Huber Heights business owner is fighting back after thieves broke into his store.

The owner of the Cricket Wireless on Brandt Pike said after being victimized earlier this year, he installed hidden cameras.

Last week the cameras came in handy when two thieves broke in and stole cell phones and cash.

Owner, Mohammad Rihan, said the suspects took more than an hour and a half to case the store and another 45 minutes inside cutting the phone lines and lights.

However, Rihan hopes video from the hidden cameras will help identify the people responsible.

He wouldn't specify an amount, but said he will pay a significant finacial incentive for information.

"I'm going to offer a big reward because this is not the first time," said Rihan. "We are going to put in more security to be able to avoid this problem".
