Fleeing robber runs toward police station

A 19-year-old robber who snatched money from a man ran straight toward a police station in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, on Friday.

Zhang, who works as a migrant worker in the city, didn't know there was a police station ahead. He ran into cops, who were waiting for him, after the victim informed police of the crime and told them the culprit was running straight toward the police station.
