– Read the following text carefully and then answer the questions:
It was a late December night of the year 2009. The weather was very cold and a strong wind was blowing. Thick snow had covered New York City and it seemed as if the snow would never stop. There were few people in the streets and the traffic was moving slowly. Suddenly a cry broke the silence of the night. This made the passers-by turn their heads in the direction the cry was heard from. It seemed that someone was in danger and badly needed help.
Three young men had just got out of a pub when they heard the cry. They saw and elderly woman who was lying on the pavement and was trying to get on her feet, and a man running away from her. The woman had been punched and kicked, but, fortunately she was not seriously hurt. Some passers-by had already gathered around the woman and were trying to help her get on her feet. Someone had already called the ambulance and its siren could be heard wailing in the distance.
Seeing that the woman was not badly hurt and that she was being taken care, the three men decided to chase the mugger. They ran after him as quickly as possible and when they were just about to catch him, the mugger went into the railway station. They speeded up and almost caught him but were turned back at the barrier since they had no tickets. That the incident happened as described above was stated at the Central Criminal Court records.
The three men were refused to use of a telephone to call the police, so they bought platform tickets, went into the station and caught the attacker. After having caught a youth of seventeen they had been after, one of the pursuers had to go outside in order to make a 999 call. The three pursuers were very much annoyed by this kind of treatment. However they were determined not to allow anything or anyone jeopardize the mission they had assigned themselves to. By the arrival of the police and the handover of the mugger to them their mission was successfully accomplished.
The case came to the court and the mugger, Steven Rogers was given a fair trial. After having examined the evidence, the jury found the defendant guilty as charged and, consequently, the mugger was sentenced to five years of imprisonment. The defendant earlier had admitted to have assaulted another woman, Abigail Wilkins, aged sixty-seven.
The reporters who had gathered outside the court asked Judge Perkins to comment on the case. The judge made a very brief comment. He said that this incident deserved to be brought to the attention of the railway authorities, as well as to the attention of the public.
