Police investigate 7-year-old child thief

NORWOOD - Police are investigating a case of theft after a disturbing video surfaced of a young girl, reported to be seven-years-old, stealing a cellphone at a restaurant.

In the CCTV footage of the Norwood restaurant, the girl, accompanied by two women sat at a table, moments later one of the women seemed to signal something to the girl and she walked over to another table where two patrons were having lunch. The little girl took a white iPhone from one of the patrons’ handbag and rejoins the two women accompanying her.
