This is the shocking moment a thief on a bicycle spots a 'Louis Vuitton' bag on the roof of a car before pedalling back around to brazenly snatch the £2,000 designer accessory.
The crook wearing a flat cap, dark jacket, gloves, and denim jeans is cycling along a quiet suburban street when he notices the dark-coloured holdall left on top of a car parked in a driveway.
CCTV footage catches him slowing down and taking a second look as he then cycles back around and parking his bike up outside the home.
The shameless thief places the bike on its stand and stares at the home before confidently striding up the vehicle.
He snatches the bag from the car's roof and appears to take a peak inside before making a quick exit.

He appears to take a peak inside before making a quick exit. The brazen theft happened in broad daylight
The brazen theft happened in broad daylight on Thursday, January 25 at about 11.52am, according to the timestamp on the video.
It is currently not clear whereabouts it took place but the 36-second clip was posted in the Southwark Park, Bermondsey and Rotherhithe south east London public Facebook group earlier this week.
A £300 reward has been offered for any information leading to identifying the person in the video, according to the post.
MailOnline has so far been unable to verify the bag is a Louis Vuitton but the light-coloured strapped and brown holdall is similar in style to the designer company's Keepall 55 Bandouliere range.
The bag has a price tag of £2,020 on Louis Vuitton's website.
MailOnline has contacted the Met Police for comment.
