A purse snatcher got the come uppance of his life yesterday in downtown Belize City.  He snatched a woman’s purse off a desk inside city hall, - and then hopped on his bike and darted off into downtown traffic on Regent Street.  

But, he rode out into traffic and an oncoming driver couldn’t stop in time and knocked him down.  He went sprawling unto the pavement and the purse tumbled out of his hand.  He dashed off, leaving the purse, and his bike.

Today, through some sharp detective work, we tracked down the passenger in the vehicle that knocked him down:

Police have not made any arrests.
