Elderly mansteals cellphone
A 70-year-old man was detained in Nanjing on Feb 19 on suspicion of stealing an iPhone 6 Plus cellphone. The man, surnamed Li, is accused of taking the phone as he walked past a basketball court in the city's Qixia district on Feb 17. He then allegedly sold the phone, which is valued at more than 6,000 yuan ($873), for a fraction of that price because he did not know how to use it. Police said Li only got 200 yuan for the device and had no previous criminal record.
