As usual, I try not to give out anything in the title.
It was a Saturday. I took Jesse out for breakfast / lunch at around 1130. I parked the car near the restaurant we wanted to go and proceeded to walk there.
Traffic was light with Monday being Labour Day. I think a lot of people went back to home town.
I saw one motorcycle making a U-turn abrubtly not too far from me. On instinct, I put myself in front of Jesse. The motorcyclist dashed past the man buying newspaper in front of a newspaper stand and the next thing we saw was coins scattered everywhere on the road.
The bike didn’t stop and disappeared quickly. The victim was stunned for a moment and ran to his car and gave chase.
Yes, that was a snatching we witnessed. It was a lazy Saturday noon. And it happened so close to my house (closer to my office.)
I thanked God for his protection. But I was also worried about what the world is becoming.
You be careful out there. You cannot be too careful.
