Michelle Metzger noticed photos from the phone started showing up in her photo stream, in iCloud, and among those photos were selfies of the suspect and another man.

Metzger said she posted a photo of the two men to her Facebook page, and it was shared almost 34,000 times — enough that someone recognized the suspect and identified him.

Next, Metzger said, she reached out to the suspect, asking him to return the phone, but “he wanted to keep playing games.”

At that point, Metzger said Tempe police became involved and contacted the suspect at his place of work — which was, by the way, the Dave and Busters where the phone disappeared.
