London Fashion Designer Tracks Down Phone Thieves and Recovers Six Stolen Devices

Izzy Du chased thieves on foot for 2km, located her stolen phone and six others, and criticized police for their lack of assistance.

Izzy Du, a Tottenham-based fashion designer, pursued phone thieves for 2km after her device was snatched by two individuals on a bicycle in North London.
Using her laptop to track the phone's location, she discovered it hidden in a hedge alongside six other stolen devices from the same morning.
Du returned three of the recovered phones to their rightful owners, while the remaining three were handed over to the police.
A 16-year-old suspect was arrested and charged with theft, while police continue efforts to identify other individuals involved in the incident.
Metropolitan Police data highlights a wider issue, with nearly 73,000 phones stolen in London this year but only a small fraction recovered.
