JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- If there was a dumb criminal charge under Florida state law, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office said they know who would get it -- armed robbery suspect Stephon Busbee.
Police recently arrested Busbee, who they said caught himself with the help of a cell phone camera he allegedly stole.
Authorities said Busbee was involved in an armed robbery that took place outside the Tailgate Bar and Grill across the street from Jacksonville Municipal Stadium a few weeks ago.
"He pulled a gun on us and told us he was trigger happy and to give us everything we had," said a victim who asked not to be identified.
One of the things the robbery victim handed over was his cell phone. He said a few days later, when he bought a new cell phone, he noticed two new pictures had been downloaded.
The pictures had been taken with the phone that was stolen.
Police said Busbee used the phone he stole to take pictures of himself. In one of the cell phone pictures, Busbee was seen wearing the gold chain he allegedly swiped in the robbery as well.
"His pictures were on the cell phone. He took pictures of himself -- petty idiotic," the victim said.
Police said they were able used the pictures to identify Busbee because he had a criminal record and a mug shot on file to compare to the cell phone images.
"He was brought over, interviewed by our robbery detectives, initially denying everything until the pictures were shown to him and he then implicated himself," said Jacksonville Sheriff's Office spokesman Ken Jefferson. "It has to be one of the dumbest things a crook can do. He ranks up right there at the top three. He's charged with armed robbery. We don't have dumb charge that we can put on him at this time."
The victim said he is still leery because he said Busbee had a couple accomplices, which he hopes are caught just as easily as Busbee.
"I'm definitely happy because if he didn't have the actual cell phone pictures he would have been out for a while and that wouldn't have been a good thing," the victim said.
No pictures of any accomplices were taken with the stolen phone. Anyone with information that could help police find the accomplices in the robbery is asked to call Crimestopers at .
