Pickpockets: Metro thieves
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • I was the target of a pick pocket on the Metro. I was wearing denims with tight deep pockets and at this time had my passport and wallet together in my leftside pocket. The time was about 6.30pm and busy, I decided not to take the first train as it was very full, I waited and others did too, including the thief ( yes I know who he was dark skinned in leather jacket). The next train arrived and when a few people got off I went to get on and seemed to get stuck, a big space was there but felt jammed and could not get to it. This was the thief at work pulling and pushing to remove my wallet, release and gone. The doors were shut, I put my hand to my pocket and felt my passport only.
