Two people on a scooter - faces completely hidden by visors, number plate covered with a bin liner - mounted the pavement twice in quick succession on Sunday afternoon, trying to steal people's smartphones, in the area by Nunhead station. Fortunately, they were unsuccessful both times. Unfortunately, I was too slow to get any pictures.


This sort of thing's prevalent in other parts of town, so it's no a surprise that it's here too. Hopefully it was an isolated incident but please remember to keep your wits about you if you're walking and using your smartphone.

Sorry I still won't be cowed like that - we might as well not wear watches as that is a prime target too - it's letting Katy Hopkins win making out London is a no go area - just use your common sense and keep your eyes open.

Hi Pedro, please could you report this to the police. There is CCTV coverage of the area outside Nunhead station. You mention that they had their faces and the bike number plates covered, but if they are known to the local police they may be able to track them down.

Checking the time won't make the bus come any faster- leave your phone in your pocket- they will TARGET bus stops in secluded places. It's about time they had displays in these bus shelters
