The two individuals are seen walking down the road looking at their devices before two hooded thieves speed past on their e-bikes.
The video was shared on X by the Metropolitan Police and details the moment the theft took place right up to when the thieves were caught.
Two suspects were arrested in “under 2 hours”, according to the Met, after officers and a helicopter team chased them down.
This followed a spree of phone snatches across central London by the men, namely in Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea.
These occurred in the space of just one hour.
Helicopter footage shows the men dressed head-to-toe in black weaving in and out of cars to get away.
A bodycam then shows them with their hands behind their head in the entrance of their respective front doors.
Taser guns are pictured pointing at them and it is presumed the arrests were made shortly after.
The pair face a combined sentence of over five years.
