TikTok menace 'Mizzy' has been found guilty of theft after he stole a woman's iPhone before getting knocked off his electric-bike by a police officer while trying to escape.
Bacari O'Garro, 19, cycled up to Ruby Hewitt and snatched the woman's black iPhone 13 Pro Max on June 15, 2022.
Ms Hewitt said the ordeal left her feeling 'stressed, anxious and scared for [her] safety' when the £1,000 phone was taken off her.
Police officers noticed O'Garro on a green e-line bike with a black and white t-shirt wrapped around his head and originally went over to check if he was alright.
But O'Garro sped off into a cul-de-sac and was seen throwing a 'reflective object' into bushes before he tried to race past a waiting officer.

PC James O'Neil told Highbury Magistrates' Court he used his baton to knock O'Garro off balance when he cycled towards him in Islington, north London.
PC O'Neil said: 'He threw what at the time I believed was a knife because it was a reflective object. I had at that point drawn my baton as he was cycling towards me at speed and I used my baton to knock him off balance.
'At that point he came off the bike and continued to make off on foot. He turned left on Highbury New Park and made off into an estate.'
