Story of a thief:
It was an early Sunday morning and the streets were deserted with barely two-three people walking Even many of the shops around were either closed being a holiday or opens late on a Sunday. I was walking down to my friend’s house who lives three streets down my house. We were to go to the beach to play beach volleyball with our other friends. I was to go to his house and from there we would take an autorickshaw to the beach. I was enjoying the pleasant breeze and the climate was chill. Humming a song I walked along when suddenly I felt a snap like feeling in back pocket. Oh No! I just realised my pocket was picked. I turned around and saw the thief was running away with my purse. I had nearly 1300 rupees along with my debit and credit cards, identity documents, and a few personal stuff. I screamed for help but no one came and so I had no other choice other than chasing the thief and getting back my purse.
The thief was a fast runner and it was not easy catching up with him. He seems to know acrobats too and was jumping and prancing around parked vehicles and over hurdles that were kept on the road by the traffic policeman. I was thinking like heroes in Kollywood and Bollywood movies I wish I had some marbles in my pocket which I could have strewn in the path of the thief so that he would slip down. But unfortunate, nothing of that sort happened. It also struck me as to why in some movies we see heroes having certain things handy in their pocket even though there is no use of it always. Anyways I had to put the thought at the back of my mind and concentrate on the chase.
I increased my speed and tried to jump over a bike that was parked in a narrow gully. I had no option since the road was actually a small passage which the thief ran into. While trying to jump over the bike, I accidentally drop the bike!! I was scared, if the owner sees it he would definitely thrash me. I had no time to keep the bike properly and ran faster, one because the thief was racing ahead and second with the fear that what would happen if the owner came out and saw his bike like that. The chase continued and the thief suddenly went into a building that had several floors. Like a lightning he darted through each floor until he reached the third floor. I too ran after him, and then I saw the thief on seeing me closing on him, jump of the parapet and slide down through a pipe! I was shocked and did not know what to. Like I had told earlier the thief seems to know stunts. If I run down the stairs the thief would escape by them.
The thief was still in the pipe sliding down. I had no choice and decided to try it out. I jumped the parapet almost about to lose my balance! Thank god, I did not. I caught hold of the pipe and tried to slide down. The pipe was rough and my hand was getting bruised. I regretted that I did not learn martial arts, otherwise like Jackie Chan I would have smoothly slid down the pipe. Also the fear of falling down made it worse for me. Somehow I managed to reach the ground reciting Hanuman Chalisa all the while sliding down the pipe. The thief ran further and finally we reached a dead end. When I was about to go close to thief, he brandished a knife, of course a pen knife. But I was very scared, and not sure what to do. But I needed my purse back and wondered what to do. I saw some stones piled up in the corner of a wall. I immediately took that and started pelting stones at the thief, at the same time also calling for help. Meanwhile some passerby saw this and came for my rescue. We were able to overpower the thief and I got my wallet back. We tied up the thief’s hands and legs with broken chord that was lying on the side of the road and I called the police. The police arrived after ten minutes and arrested the thief and took him away.
Now the best part was in the pursuit of the thief I had run through so many streets and gullies that I lost my way. Was not sure how to get back, I called up my friend who sounded concerned since I had not reached his place yet. Somehow he and his father managed to trace me and we went back to his place. I narrated the entire incident and it was such a thrilling experience. Though we could not make it to the beach since it was too late, the chain of events were quite bizarre, nevertheless exciting and thrilling .
