(KGTV) — A headline that caught our eye claims a robbery suspect was caught because of his colorful underwear.
It’s true.
Surveillance images from a Queens, New York tobacco shop robbery last year show three masked men, including one whose very visible colorful underwear featured the letter R in white and 1990 in yellow.
Police got a tip that the robbers tried to sell the stolen merchandise at another location.
So they reviewed footage from that area and found a man displaying the same colorful underwear, this time without a mask.
They identified Fathy Hussein from his Instagram account and arrested him last week.
