A Tesla has recorded the moment a masked cyclist smashed its rear window and stole a £1,000 Stone Island jacket the owner had just bought from Harrods.
The theft was caught on the electric vehicle’s CCTV system and gave a clear picture of the cycling thief.
But because he was wearing a face covering, police have almost no chance of a description as all that was visible was his eyes.
The theft took place in Knightsbridge, London, not far from historic department store Harrods.
Stone Island coats cost around £1,000 but can go for as much as £1,300.
The driver had left the bag on view in the vehicle and the car’s windows were fully tinted.
Cameras on the side and rear of the expensive American car picked up the moment the thief spotted the car, parked up his bike and then smashed the back window.
He was wearing full cycling gear including a luminous jacket, leggings and a face covering to protect against the cold.
He can then be seen pedalling off, the Stone Island bag clearly visible in his hand.
Those who saw the video were shocked by the thief’s callousness.
‘Lawless London,’ one remarked.
‘Rides off on his stolen electric bike,’ said another.
‘Crazy,’ one added.
