Police on the hunt for Vietnamese gang that stole Channel 3 host’s iPhone

Pawarisa Penchart, a 29-year-old host at Channel 3, filed a police report yesterday after her iPhone5 was stolen from the Zara store in Siam Paragon. 

Pawarisa told police that the gang that stole her phone was comprised of three Vietnamese-speaking women, aged between 40 and 45. Footage obtained from an in-store surveillance camera revealed that the gang’s coordinated plan reached completion in less than 10 minutes.

Officials asked the criminal court to issue an arrest warrant for the three suspects, who will face robbery charges and deportation, Dailynews reported.
