Victims of crime
Have you ever seen an accident? Have you ever been robbed? Have
you ever seen a shoplifter? Tell us about your experiences. We want to know. “I
was walking home from a party one night with my three friends, when we saw a
robbery. It wasn’t late. We left the party early because we were bored. We
stopped at the bus stop and while we were waiting, we saw two men breaking into
a car. They smashed the window and stole the CD player. Then they ran down the
street. We were really frightened. We called the police immediately.”
Gabriela, 16
“I was buying some new jeans in a store when I saw a shoplifter. I was paying
for my jeans when a girl picked up two T-shirts. She was talking on her cell
phone while she was looking at the clothes. While she was talking, she quickly
put a T-shirt in her bag and walked out of the store. I was so surprised I
didn’t know what to do. I told the assistant and she called security, but it
was too late.”
Franco, 17
“Last Saturday, my brother Greg and I were playing tennis in the park. There
was an ice cream kiosk near the tennis court. While we were playing, I saw two
boys walk up to the kiosk. One of the boys started talking to the assistant.
While he was talking, the other boy stole two packets of candy. We saw him, so
my brother shouted at them and they ran away. But they took the candy with
them!”
Marion, 16
