Robbing in public places

The Latest Scam: Robbing Females Using the Bathrooms at Shopping Malls.
The way the scam works is, a man slips into the women's rest-room and sneaks into a stall. He waits until there is only one woman in the restroom in a neighboring stall. The criminal then stands on the toilet and points a hand gun into the next stall, demanding the woman's valuables. After getting her cash and jewelry, he demands that she remove all of her clothing and kick them out of the stall. The thief tosses the clothing into a shopping bag, hangs an out of order sign on the restroom door, and slips back into the mall. The out of order sign ensures no one will soon come to the woman's rescue. It usually takes an hour or two for the woman to work up the nerve to leave the restroom in the nude, giving the criminal ample time to make his get away. The woman is left naked and humiliated in a mall full of strangers. The best defense, says police, is to never go into a shopping mall restroom alone, as only women who are by themselves are targeted.

I got this through an e-mail yesterday and I decided to post it here. It is sad to admit that people are not even safe in a shopping mall's bathroom. People are in danger everywhere they go and everyone should be aware of this. It makes me mad that there is not enough security in public places to avoid situations like these from happening. We can not let people continue to commit such inmoral acts. Something has to be done. There has to be more security in public places since numerous acts are comitted in public areas, and this people should receive their punishment.
