Serial Thief Arrested

Tuesday, November 4, 2014 at approximately 3:00PM: A man walked in to the Eshel hotel, located at 272 Kingston Avenue between Eastern Parkway and Lincoln Place, and asked if he can help with the garbage disposal as he was looking for work. The manager immediately recognized the man as a serial thief that had been coming back to the hotel over the past few weeks. Amongst other things, he had stolen a cell phone and a water urn. The manager told the thief that he needed to check something, stalling him while he quickly called the Shmira hotline. Shmira members arrived and detained the thief until police arrived and placed him under arrest.
