Watch video of thief caught red handed stealing on Arik Air flight from Lagos to Abuja

An elderly man was caught red handed this morning stealing from passengers of an Arik flight going from Lagos to Abuja. This will not be the first time such an incident will occur so the airline put security measures in place that led to the thief being apprehended.

Arik Air had someone pretend to be a regular passenger on the flight to watch what was going on, so as the journey began and passengers started to doze off because it was an early morning flight, the criminal carried out the act of transferring another passenger's belongings into his own bag. The spy let him finish with the theft then called the attention of Arik staff aboard the flight.

The videos captured by Japheth Omojuwa, who was also on the flight, showed passengers and Arik staff questioning the suspect while he denied the allegations and tried to hide his face from the camera. Apparently, those on the flight believed the alleged thief was not working alone as they kept on asking for his partner(s). 

Authorities were alerted and as soon as the flight landed in Abuja, uniformed men came in and questioned the culprit and it seemed he fingered another man in the crime because, in another video shared, the uniformed men can be seen escorting two men out of the flight.
