West Midlands Police said they believe the man stole the phones from concertgoers at a show by the band The Libertines in Birmingham, England. The 30-year-old and a second man were spotted with their trousers taped closed at the bottom. Police were on the lookout after reports of phone thefts during an earlier Libertines gig in the northwest England city of Manchester.
