Shock as Woman has £500 of Jewellery Stolen
August 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment
An air of unease hung over Woking yesterday after news was released by police that a woman was the victim of a mugging in the town square last Thursday.
Janice Copperwood from the ‘Mugged’ support line spoke up:
“Attacks like these are not only horrifying, but completely ridiculous. First of all, who in Surrey only wears £500 of jewellery? I mean, I’m from Hampshire and even I’m wearing a diamond bangle from Italy that’s worth well over a grand. What was the mugger thinking? We are calling for an immediate public enquiry into the state of mind of the mugger.”
The police have released details of the mugger from a nearby CCTV camera. The man is described as “of medium build, with brown hair and wearing a ‘hoody’.”
Anyone matching this description should be immediately reported to the Surrey Police Crime-Stoppers help-line.
