Default Royal Blood Pickpocket robbed 53 phones in one night



Concert pickpocket who turned himself into 'human deposit box' by cramming 53 phones inside full-length swimsuit hidden under his clothes is jailed for three years

  • Alin Marin stole phones swiped while jostling with revellers at Royal Blood gig
  • Police were also mingling with crowd at Arena Birmingham in covert operation
  • Romanian, 22, had secreted 53 phones inside compression suit he was wearing
  • Admitted theft and jailed for three years at Birmingham Crown Court yesterday



A pickpocket who stole more than 50 phones from concertgoers in one night was found to have concealed them inside a full-length swimsuit.

Alin Marin, 22, turned himself into a 'human deposit box' for phones swiped while jostling with revellers in the mosh pit during a Royal Blood concert.

But police were also mingling with the crowd at Arena Birmingham in a covert operation prompted by intelligence that thieves had targeted fans of the band at performances earlier this year.





Romanian national Marin, of no fixed address, had secreted 53 phones inside a compression suit he was wearing beneath his clothing on November 18.

Dont put phones in your jeans or in pockets without zips - beware of pickpockets at all times in crowded areas and especially cities in England..

And well done to the Police for apprehending this Romanian Pickpocket
