It seems we have a purse snatcher about town

A Parsippany woman had $150 and her passport stolen near the light rail stop at Essex and Washington Thursday night in one of Jersey City's quieter neighborhood for crime. The woman said she was walking with four friends when someone jumped out of the bushes near them grabbed her purse and ran.

Purse snatchers rely on surprise for their attacks, so if you are vigilant you can help stop these kinds of strong arm tactics. Be alert, always think that someone wants what you're carrying and do what you have to do to secure it.
