We can all a bizarre "altercation" to this: Yesterday (Thursday) lunch time, my 20 year old daughter left the house in 67 Strubens, to go under the subway to Waverley side. She saw 3 "dodgy looking gangster types" were hanging around there, so she turned around thought she won't walk past them, they are trouble.
So back on the road (Strubens), a black student type (well 18-20 year old) on a bicycle stops, and asks her if she has money. She opens her jacket and says: no I'm sorry but I don't have anything. He then says but you have a bottle of juice, give it to me, I'm thirsty. (It's one of those ones with a rubber holder, console bottle). He then proceeds to take it out of her hands. She then starts walking away. He then pours all the juice out on the ground. Never took a sip. He follows her and says: Are you afraid of me? She says: No, I'm not f****g afraid of you but f*** p*** off with you. In a loudish voice. He then says: Oh sorry, it was a joke. She says: Well its an f---g bad joke. And she walks the few steps back to our house. Where she then decided to take an uber to go where she needed to go as it was just too dangerous to go through that subway. At 12 lunch time! What a bizarre incident???
