Passers-by watched as would-be victim ran alongside truck, threw herself under its wheels to feign being knocked off her bicycle.

A woman from southeast China who staged being knocked off her bicycle by a truck in an attempt to cheat the driver into paying her compensation might have gotten away with it had the scam not been caught on surveillance camera.

Footage of the incident, which happened on July 4 in Wuhu, Anhui province, shows the would-be victim, surnamed Tang, running alongside the truck while carrying a bicycle.
