Migrant girl quits job after stopping pickpocket
(China Daily)
Updated: 2009-02-26 07:43 A young migrant worker quit her job out of fear that a pickpocket would retaliate against her for stopping a crime in Hohhot, the Inner Mongolia autonomous region. Song, a country girl, stopped the pickpocket from targeting a customer that went inside a shop where she worked. She pushed away the customer but was hit by the pickpocket on the shoulder and got a serious bruise. Later, other shop assistants warned her that such action could result in serious retaliation from thieves who might bring others to attack her. After a week on the job, the frightened girl got a ticket back home on Wednesday. (news.sohu.com) |
