Police investigators are on the hunt for a suspect in a Stockton iPhone theft who is apparently unfamiliar with the power of cloud computing — because he’s been taking selfies with the pilfered phone that appear on the victim’s iCloud account, officials said.

The iPhone 4 was reported to have been stolen out of a vehicle on the morning of Nov. 12 on the 1100 block of Roosevelt Street, said Officer Joe Silva, a police spokesman. But then a funny thing happened.

“This suspect stole an iPhone and keeps taking ‘selfie’ pictures that are loading into the victim’s iCloud account,” police posted on the department’s Facebook account, along with one of the pics.

Silva said the department had captured footage of suspects on surveillance cameras, but that this is a first.

“This is something we don’t see every day in the city of Stockton, where a suspect is taking a selfie on a cell phone that was stolen,” he said.

The department, he said Tuesday, has received multiple tips on the identity of the suspect, but has not yet made an arrest.
