Hapless robbers reportedly dropped more than a dozen brand new phones after raiding a Carphone Warehouse shop this morning.
Four men broke into the Finchley Road store in Fortune Green at about 10am and stole a large number of phones.
Witness Joe Corbett wrote on Twitter that he saw up to 20 phones on the floor of the shop following the robbery.
He wrote: “Just seen about 15/20 brand new phones all on the floor outside carphone warehouse. Surrounded by ol bill tho.”
In a separate Tweet, he then wrote: “Was robbed about half hour ago. Got through the back door. Police say it was a professional job @WHampstead #CarphoneWarehouse #FinchleyRoad.”
No-one was injured and no arrests have been made.
