My landlord Iris was robbed by a Caucasian boy at the intersection of Gardeners Road and Houston Road 4:30 this afternoon.The little boy dragged her into the driving lane at the back of our building. Her handbag was scattered into pieces after 5 mins battle, her right face was hit by him as well. Lucky, the neighbourhood dog started to bark loudly and the boy ran away and shouted "bloody woman!".
Well, he didn't expect Iris would be that strong to hold her bag for so "long" and he might think it was such an easy task to rob a Asian woman.
4:30pm! I cannnot believe this did happen. I was walking on the same street half hour later than her(peacefully listening to my walkman). The sun was still up, heaps men and women on the street as well as cars... Poor Iris, she is still so frightened and decide to leave Australia..meanwhile she has to get a new bag for work.. and it will be a big backpack bag... sigh.. she used to tell me not to walk on the small street but we cannot safely walk on the main street during daytime now. I hate this.
