For instance, take the case of a fifty year old woman walking out of a Connecticut store. She was carrying her purse on her shoulder and about to enter her vehicle. Out of nowhere, suddenly she was approached from behind by a man and told to give up her purse and demanded her pin number for the ATM. In this case, fortunately she was not physically attacked.

There are more and more attacks during daylight hours and on active streets at all times, day or night. The time of day does not seem to matter anymore. It is imperative to carry a reliable and convenient form of protection so you do not become a statistic.

Luckily, she was not injured in this incident however very shaken up. She fortunately was not carrying any money at the time and due to the location of the crime the assailant was in a hurry.
