The incident took place near a hotel on JLB Road here yesterday.

Yesterday morning, the girl, identified as Sowmya, was walking her dog near a hotel on JLB Road when a miscreant snatched her gold chain and jumped into a waiting car.

But Sowmya, without panicking and using her presence of mind and displaying courage, went after the chain-snatchers and hit the person who was behind the wheels of the car with the stick she was carrying. This resulted in the car driver hitting a roadside tree and also a goods vehicle before bringing the car to a halt. Soon, passersby managed to catch hold of the miscreants and handed them over to the Police.
