Kuwait’s authorities have arrested a masked robber believed to be responsible for a series of bold store heists. The suspect, who is an illegal resident, was taken into custody following an extensive investigation into a number of robberies that primarily took place in the early morning hours.
He is accused of committing at least 13 robberies at various locations, focusing on convenience stores and small businesses. Law enforcement officials stated that the robber’s method involved wearing a mask to hide his identity and executing quick heists during times when stores were less busy.
Police were able to locate the suspect by analyzing surveillance footage and gathering eyewitness accounts from the affected stores. Authorities have stressed the significance of public assistance in addressing such crimes, especially in identifying suspects through security footage and tips.
The capture of the masked robber has provided relief to local business owners, who had been living in fear of additional heists. As Kuwait works to combat crime within its borders, officials have cautioned that illegal residents involved in criminal activities will be closely monitored and swiftly apprehended.
