Aled Jones, host of Songs of Praise, had his £17,000 Rolex stolen by a machete-wielding teenager while walking in Chiswick, West London. His teenage son witnessed the robbery. Jones handed over the watch and called the police, who later arrested a 16-year-old boy. It is unclear if the watch has been returned. This incident is similar to other "Rolex Ripper" thefts where wealthy individuals are targeted for their expensive watches. A security expert warned that celebrities are being stalked on social media to track their whereabouts before becoming targets for such robberies.
