Mrs Anne Sterling did not think of the
risk she was taking when she ran through
a forest after two men. They had rushed
up to her while she was having a picnic
at the edge of a forest with her children
and tried to steal her handbag. In the
struggle, the strap broke and, with the
bag in their possession, both men started
running through the trees. Mrs Sterling
got so angry that she ran after them. She
was soon out of breath, but she continued
to run. When she caught up with them,
she saw that they had sat down and were
going through the contents of the bag, so
she ran straight at them. The men got
such a fright that they dropped the bag
and ran away. 'The strap needs mending,' said Mrs Sterling later, 'but they
did not steal anything.'
