I've just found out that my cousin has been mugged, this happened yesterday. He tells me that he was on the phone when it happened, but I have reason to believe that he had his phone out using the GPS to locate where he needed to go. I've told him before about never taking your phone out, (or if you do take a cheaper one)- but he is far better off only taking his phone out in safe areas.
In twn this happened, he told me how he didn't feel safe. Even told me how the homeless people were becoming more and more. It's been a while (like a long long time since I've been to town) but is it really this bad now? He told me that he was pushed into a wll and next thing he knew the phone was snatched from him. No idea what to think, but since it was on contract- within 24 hours we have cancelled the SIM, the Device, and alerted the Police along with getting an appointment where the officer will contact us within 3 days.
I would like to know it takes 3 days, but I have no idea myself really. As for what was stolen: Samsung GX8 I find it disgusting that people can do this, but in all honesty- It doesn't surprise me. Some people are just fkin disgusting and vile, and this is one of those perfect examples. Before you ask whether we have contacted the service provider (Yes, so the scumbags won't be able to add a bill) although this was all new to him and myself, We got through this like it was common knowledge. And everything is now sorted.
At the end of the day, I'm just happy to have him back safe & sound. And they didn't really steal much, just a phone to purchase drugs that will end their sad little lives. Fine by me, I hope they rot (sorry, I just seriously HATE anyone who can do this someone)
