I was waiting for my husband in a parking lot with a purse slung over my shoulder with a long strap.

A guy on a bicycle rode by and grabbed the strap. The strap also somehow went over his handlebar. I grabbed purse with both hands as it was slipping off my arm and pulled with all my strength.

The guy went ass over teakettle over the front of his bike onto the pavement.

I'll never forget the look on his face as he jumped up, all blooded, and hopped on his bike and rode away.

I should have proceeded to hit him with the purse while he was down!
