Aside from Mr Clarke's account, Mail Online understands that there is no evidence of theft.

He said: 'I told him to watch it or I'd go get my dog to settle it. He was swearing at me saying 'I haven't got your f****** iPhone, f*** you man.

'I hovered around for 20 minutes. The indication on my phone was telling me my missing headphone was right where they were outside the café.

He added: 'I was polite and said look is there any chance you have found it. They said no.
