Warning - Mobile phone Thief Grove Vale

[Paradise2]

Just a warning to everybody, my 11 year old grandson has just come home after a boy tried to steal his phone. He was stopped by a boy of about 13/14 years of age. There was actually 3 boys but only one of them was trying to steal the phone the others were telling them to leave him alone. The boy asked him the time and he said he didn?t have a watch, so he said if u have a phone look on there. He took the phone from him and made him change the pin code, he then put a new code in. My grandson was crying and thankfully a lady and her young daughter intervened as she could see something wasn?t right. She made the boy give the phone back, despite getting verbally abused by the boy. She then brought my grandson home so that she knew he was ok. Thank you so much to the lady if she is on the forum, she is a real angel.

My grandson is very shook up, but if it wasn?t for the lady intervening i would hate to think what could have happened. There are some good people in the community. Thank you again.

So sorry to hear about that. I hope he is feeling ok now - nasty experience, especially when it's getting dark. I'm glad he had help when he needed it - there are still some upstanding, brave, good people out there.
