San Diego Police arrested a man in connection with a series of pedestrian robberies where the suspect targeted victims with cellphones.
Officers identified Damar Chattman as the suspect in the July and August robberies. After searching his home, detectives said they found incriminating evidence, though they wouldn't detail what that evidence was.
Det. Sgt. Don Williams explained the victims were attacked from behind, then pushed or hit.
The suspect was targeting iPhones 5 and 6 and Samsung Galaxy s6, according to Williams, and the muggings occurred on Landis Street, Adams Avenue and El Cajon Boulevard.
Chattman has been booked into jail on mulitple charges of robbery, one count of grand theft and a probation violation.
Police have also linked Chattman to three additional crimes, but he has not been booked on those charges, so Williams could not comment on them.
The investigation is ongoing.
