ALTHOUGH PEOPLE AROUND RAN AFTER HIM, THEY COULDN'T CATCH HIM

"HE STARTED TO RUN AWAY WHEN I HIT HIM"
After the incident, the young girl panicked and explained the situation to her relatives and the police who arrived at the scene. Stating that she was very scared, the young girl said, "I withdrew money from the bank. While I was withdrawing money, he was also withdrawing money next to me. He looked at me there. Then he stopped at the corner of the street and waited for us. He mumbled something like 'Give me your number' to me. I pretended not to hear and linked arms with my grandmother. He pulled me there. When I hit him, he started to run away."
