6th January another mugging on our doorstep

A beautiful start to the day with few people about






Another mugging, this time almost on our doorstep.

At 6pm we saw a crowd of people gather by the cannon opposite. On investigation it turned out that another attack had taken place just 100 yds from the start of the trail. Had I been on our balcony, I could have seen it.

The mugger used a screwdriver this time and srtatched the face of his lady victim. She did not have any valuables on her and i understand that nothing was stolen.

The police and locals were quickly on the scene as they were undercover and patrolling as tourists all day long.

It is sad that he was not caught as searches were made within five minutes of the attack. Some locals think that he has dug himself into a hole and quickly hides after an attack underground just pulling bushed over the opening while below the ground, just like Sadam Hussain did before he was caught.
