Police volunteer attacked after stopping pickpocket
Briefly

Walking across Westminster Bridge yesterday, I saw a man in the act of pickpocketing a female tourist. I grabbed him and stopped him before he could disappear. Unfortunately, several of his accomplices appeared and began to punch me, kick me and choke me to get me to release their friend, which I wasn't going to let happen.
One up and coming black eye, bloody nose, marks on the neck, a scratched eye socket and cuts from him biting my wrist later, I'm recovering and very grateful to.
