This is the moment a quick-thinking female Russian tourist took down a phone-snatcher in Argentina. Video posted by journalist Gonzalo Benitez shows the incident on November 9 when two thieves snuck up on the 33-year-old woman while she was on a bike waiting at a junction in the capital Buenos Aires. As they grab her device, she manages to wrestle one of them off the bike and hold him until Good Samaritans rush to her aid and help restrain him until the police arrive. Officers were also able to trace the offender who fled on the bike and discovered 10 cell phones at the property where he was arrested.
I don’t understand phone snatchers?
Correct me if I’m wrong, but all modern phones now can be bricked with the ‘find my phone’ service?
Besides that, unless you get lucky with the pin / pattern, you can’t factory reset or unlock the boot loader, so what does any of it matter?
“Parts only” you can find them all over eBay.
