A Deliveroo rider was mobbed by a masked moped gang who pinched his moped.

The courier was surrounded by a group of thieves as they attempted to snatch his ride.

The four men circled the delivery driver, grappling with him to separate him from his scooter.

During the squabble, two of the thieves fell to the ground as they tripped on their own mopeds.

But the minute the Deliveroo rider left his bike unattended, a member of the gang quickly hopped on the bike.

The group then split up and rode off in different directions.

“Jail all of these scumbags for years. What have we become?”

A Deliveroo spokesperson said: “We take reports about rider safety and welfare extremely seriously and are concerned to see this footage.
