Crime on the Metro

My friends, most of you are very tired in the morning, even during rush hour. Some of you fall asleep and forget to take your purse when you wake up and jump up to get off the train. I’ve seen some women put makeup on while riding the Metro. Some women will leave their purses open while they do this. Please be careful.

Someone may be able to reach into your bag without you knowing. Some thieves may wait by the doors and wait until the moment it closes before snatching your phone from you. Pay close attention to your surroundings when you’re riding the Metro.

Once I witnessed a young woman approach a man who had money falling out of his pocket. She said, “Excuse me, your money is coming out of your pocket.” Nearby, there was another man who was just about to take the cash from him. Take my advice, be careful of your surroundings my friends.

Stay safe, and until next time.
