Woman snatches purse at airport

A woman was removed from a flight at Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport on July 28 after it was discovered she had stolen a purse worth 2,000 yuan ($300) from an airport store. The passenger initially claimed it was a case of mistaken identity, as she had switched seats with another woman after boarding, but she eventually confessed and was made to return the purse to the store and apologize.
