Police want to return stolen mobile phones to their owners after recovering 24 that they believe were snatched in the City or West End on March 26.The appeal follows an arrest outside the Bank of England that day when City Police said they found the devices.
He presumably didn't have them on him at the time or he might have done down a bit harder, with a bit of luck.
Sonny Stringer, a 28-year-old from Islington, has been charged with nine thefts, one robbery, dangerous driving and having no motor insurance. He has been remanded in custody to appear at Isleworth Crown Court on April 22.Two suspects were seen on camera riding electric motorcycles who police say were identified as phone snatchers. CCTV operators kept them on camera and alerted officers. One arrest was made.
If he won't name his fellow thief, he should be sentenced to double time. If, knowing our justice system, he sees any jail time at all,
Apparently he had 24 phones on him when he was nicked and he pled guilty to ten thefts. He must have been carrying the other 12 phones for the accomplice who doesn't seem to have been cought

ReplyDeleteI rather suspect the cops have a good idea who he is.

No, because he's not a calf.
