Police have released a CCTV image of a woman they want to trace after a mobile phone was stolen in Leicester.
The 18-year-old victim was in EAT restaurant in the Highcross Shopping Centre when she left her mobile on the counter by mistake. When she went back to fetch it the phone had gone.
The theft happened sometime between 2.25pm and 2.30pm on Tuesday, November 6.
A woman was seen to pick up the phone and place it in her handbag. She is described white and of a large build. She was wearing a black shirt with what may be a square grey name badge. She was wearing either a metallic gold or leopard print coat.
The phone is a white Samsung Galaxy SII phone with a silicone cover on it in the style of a Nintendo Gameboy.
Pcso Joe Culverwell said: "We would like to appeal to anyone who recognises this woman in the picture or the woman herself to contact police."
