According to a recent viral video, a pickpocket has found himself in a dilemma as he has been caught for allegedly snatching someone’s purse containing phones, money and other valuables.
The robber after snatching the purse passed it over to his associate who then runs off with the bag containing a mobile phone, money, and other valuables.
The man, who was alleged to be the purse snatcher at the Kwame Nkrumah Circle, in Accra, had no option than to jump into the contaminated and dirty Odaw River to save his life after he was caught red-handed stealing with the mob ready to penalize him.
An eye witness, Redeemer Buatsi, reporting the incident, all attempts to arrest him in the gutter proved ineffective giving him the opportunity to walk dangerously to an outlet where a rope was tossed down to him by his supposed colleagues some to rescue him.
“His ‘colleagues’ finally helped him out after he jumped into the polluted Odaw River to make an escape on being chased for snatching someone’s bag.” eye witness claimed.
