An woman has blown up at reporters after being charged with allegedly stealing about $600 worth of plants and pots from her neighbour’s gardens.
Sherrie Robinson, 29, faced court this week on four counts of larceny after she allegedly snatched flowers from her neighbour’s front yards in St Andrews, in Sydney’s south west.
But a wild confrontation erupted after the hearing as the alleged plant plucker was grilled by A Current Affair reporter Hannah Sinclair over the allegations.
‘F*** off b***,’ Ms Robinson yells as she is approached by the media crew, her face covered by a mask as she scurries through the car park clutching a can of coke.

‘Have you been plucking people’s plants Sherrie?’ Sinclair asks.
Ms Robinson turns towards her and yells ‘want me to go back and get you arrested?’, before her partner grabs her arm, trying to lead her away.
But unhappy with being filmed, she doubles back to throw her soft drink at the camera man, emptying the contents all over the lens before pelting the empty can towards his face.
‘F*** off bitch,’ Ms Robinson screams again, before storming off.
CCTV footage allegedly shows the St Andrews ‘phantom plant plucker’ stealing flowers from gardens
Residents launched a campaign to track down their so-called ‘phantom plant plucker’ after shrubbery started going missing from their yards.
CCTV footage shows a hooded figure taking items from garden beds and stashing them inside a bed before taking off.
One local delivered letters to mail boxes calling on anyone with information to contact police, while another alleged victim erected a fence as a deterrent.
Ms Robinson is yet to enter a plea to the charges and will return to court at again at a later date.
