Taxi drivers who may have witnessed an alleged robbery in Camden are being urged to come forward.

A man on a moped allegedly attempted to steal a phone from a pedestrian. The police said that after coming off his moped, it is believed the suspect got into a black taxi that was driving southwest along Camden Road.
