Three people were arrested and bailed after a man’s Rolex was reportedly stolen.
The incident is alleged to have happened at around 11.30am on July 22 on Main Road in Gidea Park.
A woman allegedly stole the watch before attempting to get into a moving car, falling in the process and suffering serious facial injuries and a broken ankle, Scotland Yard said.
Following the alleged incident, two women and a man were arrested on suspicion of theft.
All three have been bailed pending further enquiries to a date in late August.
There are no court dates at this time, and no charges.
