NEW YORK (CBS 2) — She said it felt like she was flying.
That’s how an elderly woman described a heartless attack inside a subway station.
And it was at the hands of another woman.
The robbery was caught on camera. As CBS 2’s Wendy Gillette reports, the video shows how Madeline Klima was robbed from behind.
A defenseless elderly woman, Klima said she can’t make sense of what happened to her.
“Why? Why’d she have to hurt so much? She wanted it so bad she could have asked for it,” Klima told Gillette.
The video shows her falling to the ground and hitting her head as the thief runs off with her purse.
“Oohh flying. Picked me up and like, threw me. And went down, and blood, you know. But I couldn’t get up,” Klima said.
The 81-year-old said she was stunned by how much force the woman used. Klima fractured and dislocated her shoulder in the fall and her eye is heavily bruised. She also needed stitches.

Yes I will. Another Obozo voter!
Amish again.
I would be inclined to disagree.
“Police said the suspect is dark skinned”
what happened? The police are saying truthful things and not cowering in fear over what the liberal administration will say?
“The woman was dark skinned...”
Start canvassing all the tanning salons in the area.
White woman mugged by diversity!
In the 1950s, few if any dark skinned Asian Indians were American nationals, hence why they use the term “Dark skinned” instead of “African-American” these days.
At least you didn’t say “niggardly” or something along those lines that would get you zotted! LOL!
And all the other subway riders were doing what....?
Where’s Bernie Goetz when you need him?
How is a modification in a common technical description people which was intended to decrease ambiguity supposed to be “PC”?
That is actually a word!

The elder woman was pasing through a both of some sorts. I could not see that anyone else was around. At least not with in ten feet of her.
YOu got me there.
"...And all the other subway riders were doing what?..."
rfreedom4u, our society has made direct interaction quite an unattractive option.
Some average guy could have witnessed the crime, bopped the fleeing criminal on the head, retrieved/returned the stolen property, and HE might still find himself getting arrested, being called a racist, getting hassled at work, etc., etc. It's unfortunate, yet I think that is what goes through many heads...
You are either not to bright or starved for attention. Maybe both.
