After waiting for other pedestrians to move out of the way they then went up onto the pavement.
They sneaked up behind the woman, and the pillion passenger grabbed her phone from her grasp.

The theft was caught on CCTV in Broadway, Stamford Hill, north London.
Locals slammed the crooks but also called on Londoners to be careful, as reported on Need To Know.
But one said US President Donald Trump’s tariffs could see US tech giant Apple product prices rising.
Parts for iPhones are made in China, which has been hit by the biggest tariffs.

“This will increase.”
Adam Cousins fumed: “Scum.”
Another added: “Only solution is to chop hands for this type of theft.”
Trevor Phillips said: “People in London should know by now not to walk down the street with their phone in their hand.
David Curry added: “Would you walk around holding out 25 to 30 £50 notes in your hand?
“I think not.
“So why do it with a £1,400 phone.”
Jacky said: “When will people learn to keep valuables hidden.”
The Met Police has been approached for comment.
