Just heard this story from my friend in Penang. Happened last night.

Couple (40+) shopping at Queen's Bay Mall. Someone came from behind and grabbed the man's leg, while his accomplice snatched the man's wallet from his back pocket. Happened really fast and no one managed to stop the thieves.

Couple reported to security that the thieves looked like Malays, but the salesgirl and cashier said that they were not Malays but Bangladeshis or Arabs.
