A plain-clothes police officer received high praises this afternoon for catching a young male, after he snatched a chain off the neck of a woman in Castries and attempted to flee.
Reports are that the young male snatched the woman’s chain near Racaii Building on Jeremie Street, Castries and began to run, but he was pursued by the said officer who captured him.
With the assistance of another plain-clothes police, the young man was restrained and searched.
A knife was found in his possession. He was later taken to the station.
