Prolific phone snatcher tackled by plain-clothed police in London
CCTV footage released by the Metropolitan Police shows two officers catching a brazen phone thief.
The footage was taken on 5 July, when two plain-clothed officers had been out on patrols in Soho, London.
A man dressed in white can be seen running across the road. He then steals a mobile phone from the back pocket of an unaware victim, before being tackled by the two officers.
The stolen phone was later retrieved before being returned to its owner.
Kaidi Nasser, 25, appeared at Westminster Magistrates Court on 8 July, where he pleaded guilty to theft and was given 30 weeks imprisonment.
