SHAH ALAM: A habitual snatch thief, who is believed to be involved in at least 70 cases in USJ, Kelana Jaya and Damansara over the last three years, was caught moments after he snatched the handbag of a 20-year-old girl who was walking in USJ6, Subang Jaya. 

The 45-year-old man was nabbed when his motorcycle was knocked down by a car while he was being chased by a patrol car at Jalan USJ 6/2G at about 8.30am yesterday.
