Sarah Harvey | Thursday 06 February 2025 12:49 GMT. This is the moment alleged phone snatchers are tracked down on the streets of London. The Metropolitan Police force arrested 230 people and seized more than 1,000 stolen phones after a week of action. The force targeted those involved in stealing, handling and supplying stolen phones in the “co-ordinated activity”, a spokesman said. Hotspots include the West End and Westminster, and police had already increased patrols and “plain-clothed operations” in those areas.
