WITNESS STATEMENT

It was about eleven o’clock in the morning on Saturday 15th October. I was travelling on the underground, we were on the Piccadilly line just before King’s Cross station. It wasn’t very busy, so I sat down. I was listening to music when I saw the man. He looked a bit suspicious.

The man stood up and walked towards the doors. Then a woman started shouting “My purse! My purse!” While everyone was looking for the purse, the doors opened and the man ran away. It all happened really quickly.

He was quite tall, about 1.85 metres, and he had very  short, fair hair. He was wearing jeans and a blue jacket, and he was carrying a newspaper. I think he was about 25 years old.
