The Carter Road serial chain snatcher has struck again. On Friday, yet another person fell victim to the popular promenade’s now famous and feared serial chain-snatcher. With 13 cases of chain snatching reported in the past one-and-a-half years, this shifty phantom has almost acquired mythical proportions, pocketing valuables of late evening walkers and slipping into the dense mangroves with baffling agility.

Joggers’ woe: For the past one-and-a-half-years, the unidentified man has successfully managed to evade cops, inspiring fear in the hearts of all those who frequent the promenade for their late evening walks. FILE PIC
