A
mother-of-two in South East London was recently the victim of a bold mugging by
a crafty animal as she walked home from a grocery store.
According
to the Bexley Council, 46-year-old Louisa Power was carrying a
bag of groceries home in Sidcup on Monday, when a wily fox appeared on the
footpath in front of her and refused to move.
Power
did her best to ignore the bushy-tailed creature and stepped around him as she
continued down the path. Undeterred, the fox shuffled cautiously behind her and
sniffed the grocery bag she was carrying.
"I
used my handbag to try and shoo it away, but as I looked around, it was on my
heel snarling at me; I ran away," Power told Metro UK.
The
red-pawed marauder jumped up as Power attempted to make her getaway and grabbed
her grocery bag from her hands. Booty in paw, the fox quickly turned tail and
ran, she said.
Power
told the News Shopper that the four-legged fiend made off with her apples and
spring onions. She was, however, able to retrieve a few scant items that fell
out of the bag when the cunning vermin made his escape.
