Woman sees off mugger in Huddersfieldpublished at 15:46 Greenwich Mean Time 25 January 2018
A woman in Huddersfield saw off a would-be mugger yesterday afternoon, after she was pushed to the ground by her attacker.
The woman - who's in her 50s - was walking along King Cliffe Road in Birkby when a woman - thought to be in her late 20s or early 30s - grabbed her bag.
The victim fell to the ground and the mugger threatened her. A struggle ensued which only ended when the woman shouted for help and her attacker ran off.
Police say they're looking for a skinny woman with long hair tied in a ponytail wearing a long knee length black coat.
