Pickpocket takes a beating after being caught in the act

In a subway car, a pickpocket attempted to steal a passenger's belongings before being caught in the act. The scene, which was filmed, shows how the thief first tries to justify herself, then goes after another woman's belongings. Bad move: the victim, an English woman, reacts immediately and slaps her hard across the face. No need for long speeches, the gesture is clear and concise. These organized gangs are known to operate in busy areas, but this time the attempt ended in immediate backlash.
