Footage of Woman Robbed & Being Slammed on the Ground is a Lesson for Us All

We must admit that it is relatively safe for us to walk on the streets of Singapore, as compared to other countries.

We don’t have to constantly hold tightly onto our bags, nor do we have to be fearful of every passing motorcycle.

Girls going out at 10 pm? Sure.

But of course lah, we can’t take all these for granted.

We can’t guarantee that what doesn’t happen to us now won’t happen in the future!

Today, we have one more reason to.

Just yesterday (Feb 25), a snatch theft happened in Kelantan, Malaysia.

Channel NewsAsia reported that the incident took place along a road in Taman Limau Manis.

CCTV footage shows clearly that while a 72-year-old lady was entering her car, a man came forward and snatched her bag.

Not wanting to let go, the lady fought with him for a while, before falling head first onto the ground.

She laid motionless on the grass for several minutes.

At the same time, the man ran away in a black Proton Persona, with his accomplice waiting for him in the car, ready to drive off anytime.

After a while, the lady tried to call for help and get up from the ground, but she fell into a nearby drain instead.

Passers-by ran forward to help up out.

The two suspects were caught within just a few hours with the help of a tip-off, according to local media.

They are two brothers, aged 27 and 33.

Meanwhile, the lady was taken to Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II and treated for minor head injuries.

Thoughts

First of all, they didn’t even try to hide the car plate number or anything LOL.

But more importantly, if you ever meet a situation like this, be it in Singapore or overseas, let go.

Do not struggle because you will not be able to win.

And to preempt all this, always be on the lookout.

It cannot be emphasised more!
