Ryan Libbey has called out thieves after he revealed he caught two men trying to steal his bike outside his house on Thursday. 

The podcast host, who is engaged to Louise Thompson, explained he realised the dogs were sniffing around the front door so he went to investigate and found two men who had jumped the fence and made it into his front garden area. 

Taking to his Instagram Story he told fans: ‘Guys this is pretty scary but I was sat inside having lunch and the dogs were sniffing around the front door which I didn’t think much of, but I called them and they didn’t come. 

‘So I went to scoop them up and I thought I’ll just open the door to check there’s no postman there and I opened the door to find two blokes taking my bicycle apart. 

‘As soon as I opened the door they started to scurry off, I managed to catch them and snatch my bike and my wheel off them, although they still have my f*****g axle which puts the two parts together.’

Ryan revealed that as well as managing to get parts of his own bike back, he also managed to get another bike they had taken. 

Sharing a snap of it he told fans: ‘I also managed to get this bike off them. So this belongs to someone in the Fulham area, so if you recognise it I’ve got it for you.’

Ryan also managed to get the thieves identities clearly on his CCTV as he expressed his frustrations at the ‘disgusting behaviour’ of thieves in London. 

He continued: ‘I do have their faces that I have caught on my camera so I am actually going to post their face on this because at this point I am so fed up with thieves in London.

‘If you have got bicycles outside your house, or prams, I have had prams stolen from outside here before. These things aren’t cheap, so it’s just disgusting behaviour. 

‘So I am going to post their face. There’s two of them, they are pretty short 5ft 5 Asian dudes, tracksuits, vests, caps and when I let them go they scurried off towards Wandsworth bridge away from the Chelsea area.

‘So yeah, just thought I would share it with you and if this is your bike, let me know.’

It comes after Bridgerton star Genevieve Chenneour who fought off a phone thief revealed he threatened to stab her in a ‘life or death’ brawl that left her terrified to leave the house – and live in London.

The actress, 27, bravely defended herself after Zacariah Boulares, 18, snuck up behind her and grabbed her phone in Joe & The Juice on Kensington High Street, west London, on February 8.

MailOnline exclusively revealed on Wednesday CCTV footage of the shocking attack on the rising star at the upmarket coffee shop. 

Appearing on This Morning on Thursday, she explained the whole incident lasted around five minutes in total, with her pinning her attacker to the floor for much of that time.  

Genevieve explained: ‘It kind of went round the corner and it turned into a full-on scrap with two people [Boulares and his accomplice].

‘And I was threatened with being stabbed so it became a real matter, in my mind, of life and death. 

‘So, I did things like, I remember kicking him back with my leg to create space in case he had a weapon on him… It was just a life-changing, crazy moment.’ 

The star admitted the horrifying experience left her terrified in the immediate aftermath: ‘I didn’t want to go outside. 

‘I mean as a woman we already, I think, have our wits about us around strangers and random men.

‘So, to have this happen to me while dealing with that base level that a lot of women have, just made me quite agoraphobic. Leaving the house was really hard.’ 

‘I’ve been here for seven years, working, auditioning, acting, just to kind of have a bit of a reset because it really did affect my confidence.

‘Going out the first time [after the incident], I remember standing in a queue and just my hands were sweating and I was so vigilant and aware of my surroundings. 

‘So yeah, just kind of trying to feel calmer.’  

The clip shows her bravely confronting her attacker: ‘I don’t know if I would advise anybody else to do it. 

‘I think I have very quick reactions, thanks to having three brothers growing up and I’m an aviated carded boxer.

‘I think it just was an instinct, I also do a lot of fight training for work and acting… 

‘I thought that was a normal reaction and I read all the comments [online] and realised, actually, a lot of people would just let them take the phone.’
