How to pickpocket in Assassins Creed 1 on Xbox?

Once you lock on to your target with LT how do you actually pickpocket?


Solution 1:

After you lock on to your target get very close behind them without them staring at you. When you're within arms reach, the right button (Circle on the PS3, Ⓑ/B on the 360, and Left Shift on the PC) should change from "Gentle Push" to "Pickpocket". Pushing the Pickpocket button should steal the item from the person and complete the mission if the target isn't looking when you do it.
