MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A neighbor’s cell phone camera helped a victim tip off police after thieves hit her Rivergrove Townhomes in Raleigh.

The witness said similar crimes happen there all the time.

WREG spoke with a witness who said she saw two men breaking into a town home but her cell phone video was able to capture them driving away.

The woman, who didn’t want to show her face on camera, said it didn’t take long for men to kick in her neighbor’s door and get inside her home on River Grove Circle.  The witness came outside after she heard a loud noise.

“That’s when we noticed a young man bringing TV’s out the lady’s house and it was a young man sitting in the car looking to see if anybody was watching him bring the TV’s out the house,” she said.

She said a maintenance worker confronted one of the men and told him he did not have permission to be on the property last week.

“So immediately called the police and called the resident manager over here. They noticed that we was calling the police so they grabbed another TV, threw it in the trunk and sped off. I ran to the end of the post and recorded their car and their tags,” she stated.

She managed to record people she said were the suspects speeding away. The victim quickly connected the car to Corey Bailey who police arrested. The woman said she keeps an eye out for criminals because the gates you see when you come there don’t work.

“I wish something could be done about it, we have asked to get the gate fixed but it has not gotten fixed,” she stated.

A worker at the property said the gates do work but often stay open because of tailgating.

In a separate case, Bailey was also arrested on two counts of domestic assault in July and arrested in another incident for driving with a revoked license.

WREG asked police if there will be other arrests in this case. We are still waiting to hear back from them.
