Kalyan teenager learns how to steal motorbikes by watching internet videos

The internet is a wonderful medium of education but, there are some who misuse it like a 19-year-old boy who worked in a garage and took to stealing motorbikes. He had learnt how to do it through videos on the internet – and, he had two underage boys as his assistants.
This has been reported in timesofindia.indiatimes.com dated 1 October 2015.

The two-wheelers were stolen from Thane, Kalyan, Dombivli, Ulhasnagar and Virar and, after stealing, when the three tried to sell them, they landed in trouble because the wary buyers doubted that the boys were too young to own a bike.
The police stumbled upon them while probing a motorcycle theft case that led them to the 19-year-old Kalyan resident who worked at a garage, and was in possession of the stolen motorcycle. Subsequently, his accomplices were caught and 13 stolen bikes were recovered. All three of them hail from lower middle-class families.
