The whole thing happened around 8:35 p.m. on Matthesstrasse in the Schloßchemnitz district. Three previously unknown men stood in her way and held her down.
“As a result, someone tried to snatch her handbag,” said a police spokesman. But the handbag robbery didn't work.
“She is also said to have been touched inappropriately by the trio on several occasions,” the police continued.

Fortunately, the young woman was able to break away and run towards Ermafa Passage. She fled across Leipziger Strasse – so quickly that a car apparently had to brake because of her.
“The young woman suffered minor injuries that did not require treatment,” said the police.
