KAJANG: A man was set upon by a mob after he had snatched a handbag from a woman near the Semenyih wet market here on Sunday.
The 64-year-old housewife was about to enter the market with her husband and son when two men on a motorcycle rode pass them at about 8.30am.
Kajang OCPD Asst Comm Willey Richard said one of the men snatched the woman's bag and on seeing this, the woman's son chased after them.
“With the help of passers-by, they managed to catch the motorcyclist. However, the pillion rider escaped through an alleyway,” he said.
The 38-year-old motorcyclist was beaten up and later sent to Hospital Kajang.
