A man has been charged in relation to mobile phone thefts in Aberdeen city centre.
Police said a 38-year-old man has been charged and is expected to appear at Aberdeen Sheriff Court today.
Chief inspector Graeme Mackie, area commander for Aberdeen South, said: “We continue to advise the public to make sure you keep your phone in your hand or front pocket when you are our socialising and never leave it unattended.
“If you keep it in a handbag, then keep your handbag with you, in sight and unopen.
“The analogy we often use is that you wouldn’t put £400 in cash on a nightclub table and walk away from it, or leave it in open sight, so you shouldn’t do it with your mobile phone.”
