A robber did switch off the Find My iPhone feature on a phone that he had stolen.

When the cops switched it on, he was right outside the police station, according to The Metro.

The Metro reported that police put the victim’s details into the tablet computer and traced back his location.

Officers then alerted their colleagues at the Mitcham station, and they then rushed outside to arrest him. The iPhone was in his pocket.

He denied the burglary at Croydon Crown Court last week, but fibers from his clothing were found at the scene of the crime.

Debrah will now spend two years in prison.
