A prolific phone thief who stole 24 mobiles in one morning on an electric motorbike has pleaded guilty to theft. Sonny Stringer and an accomplice sped through the streets of central London on 26 March, reaching speeds of up to 50mph as they stole phones. The 28-year-old from Islington, north London, snatched phones from the hands of unsuspecting members of the public as they went about their day.
After speeding across Blackfriars Bridge, the pair evaded a police car and rode across a pedestrian crossing, narrowly missing one member of the public as another had to run to avoid being hit. Two police officers quickly began closing in on the pair as the phone snatchers mounted the pavement at times as they tried to escape. One officer, PC Jordan Smith, rammed Stringer as he headed towards a pavement, where a family were pushing a buggy.
