A thief who stole jewellery worth more than SR500,000 from a house in Saudi Arabia was quickly arrested after he tried to sell the items to their owner, the Saudi Sahafaonline news network said on Sunday.

The thief, in his 20s, sneaked into the house of a Saudi jewellery dealer in the central province of Alqaseem and stole gold and other precious metals, it said.
 
“He tried to sell the stolen items to the owner himself, who quickly recognised his items….he phoned the police, who arrested the man and recovered all stolen jewellery,” said Lt Colonel Fahd Al Nabhan, Alqaseem police spokesman.
