Hi
was in a Card Factory this afternoon - felt handbag 'move' looked down to see my purse in the hand of the 'lady' standing next to me, one of two. I yelled (I did, too:o) and their staff were brilliant - one of them chased after the ladies, met a colleague who joined in and the ladies were arrested, with other purses on them!
I have e-mailed Card Factory...

They've been caught now, but probably let off when in court. Yes, I'm cynical, but I bet I'm right.0

Just to let you know these ladies have been charged with 5 counts of 'Theft from the person'. I have now given a statement to police and wait to see whether they will be charged with further counts of attempted theft.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
