This is the moment a bike-riding thief snatches a phone from a woman in London before speeding away through a red light.
The brazen theft occurred on Wednesday in Marylebone, a hotspot for phone snatching where devices are reported stolen on a daily basis.
Footage captured by an onlooker shows the masked e-bike rider zooming down a busy street at around 8am this morning, before spotting an oblivious woman scrolling through her device on the opposite pavement.
He then quickly performs a U-turn and mounts the curb before swiping the phone from the victim’s hand as she stands in horror.
