• Mugging IS NOT Bag Snatching

  "Mugging" involves confrontation/threat that may lead to violence, whereas "bag snatching"/"pick pocketing" does not. Barcelona has a horrible reputation for the latter, but not much for the former. Please do not scare readers by confusing a relatively infrequent problem (violent crime) with a widespread, endemic, rather polemic one (non-violent crime).

• Stolen handag Ramblas, Barcelona

  Good afternoon, my ladies pale blue Longchamps rucksack and red Cartier wallet was stolen last night, 21/08/2010, in the Ramblas, Barcelona. It also contained my Nokia cellphone, tested sunglasses, South African Identity document, drivers licence and cash (Euros). I have filed a denuncia report at the police station. Is there any central place where items which are found can be viewed?
  
  Thanks
