I lost my cellphone in a crowded nightspot. The next day when I called my own number, a person finally picked it up and he hung up when I told him he has my phone. I called again and he had switched it off. I made a police report the day after. A few days later, I finally managed to find out who the person is.
I had contacted the person online through this Friendster account, however he did not reply and I know he had logged in to his account as he has new testimonials. I sent him a message again, telling him if he does not reply to my message I shall report him to the police.
He is a 15 year old. I was wondering would the police do if I reported him. Someone told me I was the one who was careless so maybe the police can't do a thing. But I feel that this is theft as I made contact with him via the phone and he acknowledged he has my propery by hanging up and switching off the phone. Furthermore, he gave out my number to his friends thinking he can use it.
What would the police do?
