4-Time Olympic Track Champion Mo Farah Chases Down Thieves In Van To Retrieve Stolen Cellphone

A couple of thieves recently learned why you should never judge a book by its cover.

Four-time Olympic gold medalist Mo Farah was recently out for a run with his wife when he was faced with a situation many of us dread, having your phone stolen. Reportedly, Farah left his cell device on the side of a private road that leads to his home.

After he and his wife left their house, Farah reportedly noticed a white van pull up and two men take his phone. A witness told The Times that Farah wasted no time chasing after the thieves at “full throttle.”

It’s reported that he easily caught up to their escape van and was given back his cell without any issues. Police are looking into the incident.

You can bet the phone jackers had no clue they stole from a professional runner!
