DORAL, Fla. \u2014 A 23-year-old man was arrested Monday on accusations that he stole several iPhones from a Doral warehouse where he worked. <\/p>\n
According to an arrest report, the thefts were reported by the owner of Nelcon Cargo Corp., who told officers that the suspect, Jesus Meneses-Perera, had worked at his warehouse, located at 1970 NW 82nd Ave., for about three years.<\/p>\n
Police said the owner recently noticed several iPhones were missing after being scanned into the warehouse, which led him to review his surveillance footage.<\/p>\n
According to the report, at about 2 p.m. on March, 5, Meneses-Perera, of Hialeah, is seen in the video sitting at his desk with several packages.<\/p>\n
He then is seen concealing an iPhone box in a trash can underneath his desk and then, at the end of the day, carrying the trash bag to the dumpster, police said.<\/p>\n
According to authorities, Meneses-Perera returned to the dumpster a short time later and was seen retrieving a cardboard box from the dumpster, placing it in his vehicle and leaving the area.<\/p>\n
Police said he used the same method to steal another iPhone box the following day, depriving the business of $2,457.<\/p>\n
Police noted in the arrest report that Meneses-Perera was permitted to remove cardboard from the dumpster, but was not allowed to take any other property from the warehouse.<\/p>\n
According to the report, Meneses-Perera was arrested Monday with assistance from a Hialeah police officer before being transported to the Doral Police Department, where he declined to provide a statement to detectives.<\/p>\n
He faces a third-degree grand theft charge.<\/p>\n
As of Tuesday morning, Meneses-Perera was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on a $2,500 bond. <\/p>\n
