Have you ever happened to be an eye-witness to a snatch theft crime? Or you yourself was once victimized by these hopeless bunch of criminals? Bear in mind, crimes never notify anyone. They take place when we are in default!
The wind was blowing quite chill and strong this night, it was so cold. My friend and I were walking our feet back to dorm when something unexpected was about to snatch our attention.
There was this lady, walking all alone approximately 10 meters away behind us. At the beginning, we were unaware of this one lady presence behind us. The road was also quite vacant. Assumption has it that, people have gone back to their hometown to celebrate the upcoming Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
Not long after, a sound of lady screaming voice occupied the sky. We took a look at our back and guess what? A crime took place as this lady's handbag was snatched off of her safe keeping. It was so swift that the criminals successfully accomplished their evil mission of the night in no time.
How did the lady reacted to the event? She screamed and ran towards her two friends. Yeah, we had no idea that the two persons walking in front of us were actually her friends.
Did the lady got her handbag back? No, she didn't. As a result, she lost her handbag which I believe, contained an amount of cash, ATM card, and most importantly, her identification card in only few seconds.
Now, she would've been able to avoid from being a victim, if she took precautions from as early as she left from wherever she was for a walk at the outside, wouldn't she?
Fellas, there are two essential elements that need to be fulfilled for a snatch theft crime to occur.
First, MOTIVE and second, OPPORTUNITY.
Look over for these two elements. Crime wouldn't happened without motive. If motive is present, please please and please, DO NOT EXPOSE the opportunity for the criminals to accomplish their motive!
How do we sense motive so that we can stay cautious? As a matter of fact, we do not possess such ability. The only solution to our defect in detecting motive is, stay CAUTIOUS at ALL time!
If we really are serious with our intention to curb this crime, well then, let's gather our forces and topple those criminals out there at once!
p/s : A word of advice, do NOT fight with criminals during your encounter with them. Not only they will snatch your bag, but also your life.
