Man Attempts Chain Snatching in Greater Noida Society
A scary thing happened in a big building in Greater Noida.
A man tried to grab a necklace from an old lady in the elevator.
He wore a helmet and ran away when she screamed.
The people living there are upset because they say there are no guards to keep them safe, even though they pay a lot of money for maintenance.
This isn't the first time something like this has happened.
A few days ago, someone stole a motorcycle from the same building.
The people are worried and want the building managers to do something to keep them safe.
The police are looking at the video and say they will catch the man soon.
A man wearing a helmet attempted to snatch a gold chain from a 70-year-old woman in an elevator at La Residentia Society, Greater Noida West.
The incident occurred around 5 pm on January 8 in the B1 Tower, Tower No 15.
The woman screamed for help, and the man fled after pushing her.
Residents are angry about the lack of security and high maintenance fees, with a motorcycle theft reported earlier in the week.
Police have reviewed CCTV footage and are working to arrest the accused.
