The man later headed in the direction of Hackney on an electric scooter where he tried to buy another bottle of champagne with the stolen card.

Items stolen during the burglary totalled more than £3,000 and also included cash and a Macbook Pro.
A Whyte Portobello bike as well as other Christmas presents and items were stolen from a house in Islington.
