[01:40.73]She was a large woman with a large purse that had everything in it but a hammer an nails.
[01:47.57]It was about eleven o’clock at night, dark, and she was walking alone, when a boy ran up behind her
[01:55.67]and tried to snatch the purse. The strap broke with the sudden single tug the boy gave it from behind.
[02:03.56](1)But the boy’s weight and the weight of the purse combined caused him to lose his balance.
[02:09.99]Instead of taking off full blast as he had hoped, the boy fell on his back on the sidewalk
[02:17.30]and his legs flew up. The large woman simply turned around and kicked him right square2 in his blue-jeaned sitter.
[02:27.62]Then she reached down, picked the boy up by his shirtfront, and shook him violently.
[02:34.36]2 After that the woman said, “Pick up my pocketbook, boy, and give it here.”
[02:40.99]3 She still held him tightly. But she bent down enough to permit him to stoop and pick up her purse.
[02:48.15]Then she said, “Now ain’t you ashamed of yourself?”
[02:52.56]4 Firmly gripped by his shirtfront, the boy said, “Yes'm.”
[02:57.58]5 The woman said, “What did you want to do it for?”
[03:01.63]6 The boy said, “I didn’t aim to.”
[03:04.92]7 By that time two or three people passed, stopped, turned to look, and some stood watching.
[03:11.95]8 “If I turn you loose, will you run?” asked the woman.
[03:16.36]9 “Yes’m,” said the boy.
