Grab and go? I don’t think so
While shopping Nov. 6 at Publix, Angela Maria Teressa Santangelo Letteriello Matrisciano Mason was the victim of a distract-and-grab wallet theft. But being a healthy Italian woman, Mason was not going to stand by and watch.
She quickly ran in pursuit with a full grocery cart in tow. When the thief jumped in a car to make a getaway, Mason tried to blockade the car with her loaded cart; however, it did nothing to deter the perpetrator, who continued to back into it — three times. Assault charges are pending.
