15 August 2018
The 80-year-old was leaving a Remuera supermarket yesterday afternoon - when
a man violently grabbed her bag, knocking her to the ground.
Detective Senior Sergeant Lloyd Schmid says she is fortunate to have survived
such a traumatic event.
After viewing the footage she thinks it's lucky someone so frail wasn't more
seriously injured.
Police are continuing their search to locate the offender.
