A 29-year-old Somali man is expected to be arraigned tomorrow charged with a ‘grab and run' theft in St Julians, the police said.
The man allegedly approached a 51-year-old woman in Borg Olivier Street and stole her handbag. After being informed of the incident, the police patrolled the area and, upon seeing the police, the man tried to escape. He was caught in Telghet Birkirkara.
