New Yorkers think they have seen evreything but no one has ever heard of a mugging of someone 101 years old.

Rose Morat incredibily fought back and tried to retrieve her purse from the assaliant. It is hard to imagine a more henious and evil attack on a defenseless old woman. The NYPD apparently is trying desperataley to apprehend the perpratrator of this crime. It seems likely that even a reward may be given leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspect in this crime.

Mrs. Morat spent three days in a hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.
