Desperate times breed desperate measures.
A broad daylight robbery of the same calibre in trowbridge a few days ago are indications of the lengths criminals will now go to to get money.
A product of this economic downturn?

The question now is how 'we' deal with these people before someone is killed for an empty purse and an old nokia?
