Teenager robbed aboard E3 bus


Suspect stole valuable mobile but let victim keep sim card

On Friday 24th March 2006 at about 13.30 a 15 year old boy had his valuable mobile phone stolen whilst he was aboard an E3 bus.

The incident took place while the bus was travelling from from Grove Park towards the Chiswick High Road.

The suspect stopped the victim and asked him what he’d got in his pockets. The suspect then 'patted down' the boy and took his mobile phone from his trouser pocket.

Before leaving the bus, the suspect allowed the boy to remove the SIM card from the Sony Ericsson phone which is valued at £200.


The suspect was described as a white male, about 20 years, skinny build, 6’00”, wearing a yellow baseball cap with the letter P on it, a black jacket with silver letters AJ on the back, black jeans and black trainers.
