Shocking footage from Australia has captured the moment a teenager riding a scooter attempted to rob a pregnant mother on a walk with her two children.
The 37-year-old mother was walking down a sidewalk in Ashfield, Perth, Australia around 12:40 p.m. Monday when a 15-year-old girl approached her. CCTV footage shows the teen dragging the mom along the concrete footpath by her hair as she clings onto her stroller.
The stroller falls to the ground as the desperate mother clings onto it, with her two children screaming. She suffered minor cuts and bruises but fell on her stomach, with officers concerned for her unborn child.
Western Australia police arrested the 15-year-old shortly after, alleging she was attempting to steal the mother’s handbag. The 15-year-old was charged with one count of robbery and is expected to appear in Geraldton Magistrates Court On Sept. 13.
