A Chicago woman whose apartment had recently been burglarized and her email hacked was tired of being a victim.
So when a high school student on a local bus snatched her wallet on Friday, Linette Kossow decided to take action.
With the help of a security guard, whom she paid $20 bucks and a homeless man, whom she paid $10 bucks for helping her nab the grabber, Ms Kossow chased down the would-be thief for nearly a mile and said: ‘God wants you to give me back my wallet. Please give me back my wallet, I need it’.
The 50-year-old Macy’s executive told the Chicago Tribune that she was tired of being a victim and preyed upon.
‘I had a lot of bad things happen, I was just done,’ she said.
She boarded a Chicago public bus shortly after midnight on Friday. That’s when 18-year-old Jenar Sanders allegedly took the wallet and made a run for it.
Jenar Sanders , 18, a senior at South Shore High School, was charged with felony theft and is being held on $100,000 bail. He has prior convictions.
