Juvenile Delinquent Who Stole Motorcycle Commits Jewelry Store Theft Just One Day After Release

A juvenile offender exempt from criminal punishment, who had been caught by the police for theft, was apprehended again the day after being released for stealing precious metals from a jewelry store.

The Gwangju Seobu Police Station announced on the 20th that they had booked middle school student A without detention on charges of theft.

A is accused of stealing precious metals worth approximately 18 million won from a jewelry store in Chipyeong-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju, at around 12:50 p.m. that day.

He acted like a customer while wearing a pure gold bracelet and took the precious metals while the jewelry store owner briefly looked away.

A hid in nearby commercial buildings and was arrested by police who responded to a report. The day before, he was caught after stealing a motorcycle.

A is reported to be a juvenile offender under the age of 14, exempt from criminal punishment.

The police have recovered some of the precious metals from A and are tracking two accomplices believed to have taken the remaining items, while investigating the exact circumstances of the case.
