The suspect, 18-year-old Som Socheat of no fixed abode and no known occupation, came to a stop by the Lexus, and then took his tools out to remove the wing mirror from the left hand side of the vehicle.

... took his tools out to (carefully) remove the wing mirror from the left hand side of the vehicle.
See ^^^
- a left wing mirror thief brings all the right tools, doesn't cause any damage, and only takes according to his need.

A right wing mirror thief would have just smash and grabbed the lot.
