Justifiable Error
A local businessman was standing in Oxford Street yesterday vthumbing through some banknotes. Up came a second man, walking briskly and, swinging alongside, flicked dhe notes out .of the other's hand. Without hesitation a woman who was passing by executed a flying tackle which would have done justice to any rugby rep, securing the assailant. Catch to this story is that both men were the best of friends, and the note snatching episode was purely in fun and accompanied bv some verbal banter, which the woman apparently did not wait to hear. The owner of the inoney, however, is most grateful ,to the woman, who apparently depa'rted after explanations being made without her identity being revealed, for her uromptness in sumining un the situation and apprehending someone who might have been of the criminai class.
