PNG Kumuls star Stagroth Amean caught a young crime suspect from a chase and handed him to police.

Amean chased the suspect when he snatched his mobile phone from his car and ran away.

The NCD and Central Police Divisional Command wrote on its Facebook page crime does not pay, especially if the perpetrator is attempting to run away from one of the country’s fastest man.

It just reported a while ago that the thief fled but the athlete dramatically chased and caught him about 200 meters away from the crime scene.

“The Kumul Star was waiting to negotiate on-coming traffic at the 4-Mile roundabout when this suspect opened his car door, and ran off with the mobile phone.

“Motorists and bystanders were awe struck when they saw a lanky man in a white shirt getting out of the car and sprinting after the thief.

“Amean weaved through the busy traffic like a scene from a movie and pounced on the suspect,” it posted on Facebook.

Further, it Saif when bystanders realised who he was, they cursed and beat up the suspect before taking him to the nearby Boroko Police Station.
