A pensioner bravely fought off a pair of alleged pick-pockets who appeared to be trying to retrieve something from his coat while his back is turned.
Footage of the incident, captured on CCTV, shows an elderly man standing with his back to two men at a bus stop in East Ham, east London.
One of the men moves in front of the older man, as the other moves towards him, his hand appearing to hover over his coat pocket.
