The swiped Samsung Gravity smartphone automatically pushed the “selfies” to the phone owner’s account on Photobucket.com. The victim saw the pictures on her account and called authorities, sheriff’s spokeswoman Debbie Tanna said.
The phone, worth $200, was stolen May 17 while it was on a counter near the register at a Family Dollar store on Legion Road in Fayetteville.
The man in the pictures has an olive complexion, short dark hair and a goatee. He has a tattoo on the left side of his neck with the initials MDB, and a tattoo on his right forearm. He also has a piercing in his left ear.
