Attempted phone theft by biker - full description

[vladi]

Just two minutes ago I looked across the road (East Dulwich Grove) when I heard some shouting. It was immediately evident that what had happened. A single male ( the victim) was on his own and was walking along the pavement when a thief all dressed in black approached from behind and grabbed his phone.
 

The victim  gave chase and the thief dropped the phone in the road. Both the victim  and the thief were going uphill so I guess the thief must have reckoned on being caught up with.

The thief was:-
Black male about 6ft, thin
Wearing a full fabric face mask (commando style)
Dressed entirely in black with black trainers and black hoodie
Low profile bike with black frame and thickish tyres.
Had one white sock on right leg

The thief had the audacity to slag off the victim .

I seem to recall something similar to this being posted recently.

Watch out folks and if you see someone approaching this description, report it
