It is believed that the motorcyclist, who was wearing a pink and black coloured shirt, snatched the woman’s purse near the driveway off-screen. However, not wanting to let her possession go, she held on to her purse tightly to the point that she was dragged across the small asphalt road. We can’t imagine the physical pain that must’ve caused her!
