TWIN brothers who mugged a teenager in Holland were arrested after being caught on camera by a car gathering images for Google's online photo map service.
The pair stole the 14-year-old boy's mobile phone and 165 Euros in cash last September.
"The picture was taken just a moment before the crime," a police spokesman said.
In March, the victim recognised himself and the robbers while surfing Google Maps. The images are usually taken by a camera mounted on a car.
After an investigation by the police, one of the 24-year-old twins confessed to robbing the boy.
