Chris told the Evening Standard: ‘I couldn’t believe it. I was stunned. He couldn’t have known who I was because he wouldn’t have tried it. He was just looking at the prize.”
Chris called the mugger ‘brazen’
He continued: “I thought, he must be the country’s most brazen crook.
“But it’s a sign of the times – they don’t care about confronting someone like me, so nobody is immune.”
And despite following him along the route of the mugger’s escape, he couldn’t spot him.
Staff at the bank also checked their CCTV footage.
No parent can get over it

“You can’t recover from that.”
