Without your advice, I would have been robbed of my bag.
L'agresseur s'est jeté sur moi et a volé mon sac à main.
The mugger lunged at me and stole my purse.
Il m'est toutefois venu un doute, parce qu'une retraitée, Mme Lucia Boroni, m'a dit l'autre jour : "Je marchais en rue et on m'a volé mon sac.
However, a question mark has formed in my mind because, the other day, a pensioner, Mrs Lucia Boroni, said to me: 'I was walking down the road when someone ran off with my handbag.
J'ai alors vu un policier qui portait un uniforme européen et je lui ai demandé pourquoi il ne courait pas derrière celui qui avait volé mon sac.
Then I saw a policeman nearby with a badge saying 'European Policeman' on his jacket, and I asked him: "Why aren't you chasing that thief who has stolen my handbag?"
