A crook on a pink butterfly bicycle stole a 10-year-old girl’s phone as she was walking to school in North Corona Wednesday morning.
The heartless thief biked up to the girl near 102-02 34th Ave. and snatched the phone right from the girl’s hand at around 8 a.m., police said.
He grabbed the phone from the girl’s hand with such force that the 10-year-old had to have her hand treated by a school nurse.
