A BUNGLING crook was caught after he took a picture of a haul of stolen watches strapped to his hand — because forensic experts were able to match the photo to his fingerprint record.
Stephen Taylor, 29, took the image on his mobile phone and intended to use it to help him sell-on the designer time-pieces worth around £4,000.But police swooped on Taylor after a tip-off, seized his mobile and discovered the pictures of the watches wrapped around his fingers.
