And he would have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for those pesky cameras.

An employee of Wild Rover Tours in Dublin has appealed for help after a man was caught on camera stealing his phone from behind the counter at their office in Bachelor’s Walk last night.

The employee, Robbie Campbell, sent us on footage from last night in which a man wearing a red hat can clearly be seen stealing his phone from behind the counter before leaving the premises.

Hey guys, some bastard stole my phone from the shop this evening, anyone know him, share this post and see can we find him, the guy in the red hat

Robbie was busy dealing with another customer at the time and didn’t see how his phone had disappeared until reviewing the CCTV footage, which clearly incriminates the thief in question.

The video has been viewed almost 40,000 times and shared almost 600 times at the time of writing and if anyone has any information that might help identify the culprit and help Robbie recover his phone, you can contact the Garda Confidential Line on 1800 666111.
