The victim left the show with his roller bag and was headed to his hotel and stopped to make a purchase at a shop. During the transaction a suspect grabbed the roller bag in seconds and fled. The victim immediately followed the suspect but was distracted by a second person who pointed in the opposite direction of the fleeing suspect.
