Tiara, the restaurant owner contacted STOMP to share the CCTV footage and details of the incident.

She said, "This man in the blue shirt walked into the restaurant to pick up an order for a customer, but also 'picked up' my iPhone 7."

According to Tiara, the man had previously left the restaurant but came back 30 seconds later to allegedly steal her iPhone which was left on top of the counter

The video showed the man walking into the shop before placing his handphone on top of Tiara's phone. To keep her attention away from the phone, he asked the owner to change the food's paper bag to plastic bags.

He placed the pizza box on top of the two phones to cover it from her sight while she was fulfilling his request.

For a long period of time, his right hand was under the pizza box, presumably to align both phones together so he could carry them together with a pizza box on top of it.

After Tiara was done packing the food into the plastic bag, he walked out of the shop with the orders and her phone as well.

Tiara tried numerous ways to contact her phone and the man but to no avail

She found out that her phone had been switched off and was unable to track her phone via the Find My iPhone app. The delivery man also ignored her calls when she tried to contact him through the number from the Uber Eats order.

The restaurant also told STOMP that she has filed a police report and investigations are ongoing.
