Gangster's cell phone leads police to bust

Police in Shenzhen's Bao'an district cracked a criminal gang by using a text message sent by another gang member.

Police from local Longcheng police substation detained a suspect on Sunday night. And when his mobile phone kept ringing, they learned he was being ordered to steal a car parked in his housing estate.

Police launched a sting and busted the gang that was stealing cars in the district for several years.
