Pregnancy foils robbery attempt

A 20-year-old woman in Suining managed to persuade a man not to rob her on May 25 by revealing she was pregnant. The woman, surnamed Wang, was alone, taking shade in a pavilion, when the man, surnamed Li, dragged her aside and demanded cash. On hearing Wang was two months' pregnant, Li apologized and said his wife was due to give birth in a month. He said he had resorted to robbery because his paycheck had been delayed. Wang reported the incident to police the next day and Li was detained. Given that he abandoned the attempted robbery and Wang walked away unharmed, police decided not to punish him.
