[A blind BBC reporter fought off and detained
a mugger who snatched his mobile phone
in London in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

Sean Dilley sustained several cuts and injured
his elbow during the incident,
which happened just before 6am,
while he was on a break during a night shift.

A person riding a bike stole the phone
near the BBC’s New Broadcasting House.
Dilley sensed that his attacker was next to him
and managed to jump towards him and
restrain his arms, retrieving his iPhone
and using a voice assistant on the device
to call 999.]

Out of sight.

This guy is a legend.

A game of Attack The Thief should become a new Sport.
