Thief on the run electrocute herself

new york - A street robber in New York has paid an attempt to steal a Louis Vuitton bag with death.

The man tried to strip a woman from her expensive bag in Brooklyn, but apparently she was shocked by patrolling police officers. He fled, without a bag, and ran into a subway station.

There he jumped on the rails and ran ten blocks further to the next station. Just before he reached that station, he stumbled and hit the so-called third rail, where electricity is on high voltage. The man was dead instantly.

Incidentally, he would probably not have escaped without stumbling. The police had already turned off the station.
