Readers following us saw that we reported via the scanner that three juveniles had allegedly stolen a cell phone from a minor on Rutgers Street near Springfield Avenue.
The call went out at about 7:40 p.m.
By about 7:55 p.m. the scanner had cops reporting they had three teens in custody for the crime.
As we followed the action on the scanner, it became clear police were acting immediately and using reports via the victim's cell phone tracker.
To have such a theft reported, responded to and solved within a matter of some 20 minutes or so is a credit to our great police crew.
As one supervisor said to his officers on the scanner: "Outstanding!"
Well put!
