ITN - CCTV may hold snatch death clues Police investigating the death of a woman who was run over and killed after her handbag was snatched say CCTV footage could hold vital clues. Liz Sherlock, who was 42, died after slipping from the bonnet of a car after chasing at least one thief outside Euston Station in London.
Police say they are looking for a man and possibly a woman driver in connection with the incident.
Detective Inspector Martin Lee said officers were hopeful that the incident was caught on security cameras. He said Mrs Sherlock's handbag may have contained as little as 20. Mr Lee praised her actions but warned people in similar situations to weigh up the risks before tackling thieves themselves. Clung to bonnet Eyewitnesses say Mrs Sherlock, a freelance costume designer from Chiswick, West London, clung to the bonnet of a car for almost a minute before falling under its wheels. Mrs Sherlock worked for the BBC on a number of popular television programmes including Last of the Summer Wine and Rolf's Amazing World of Animals.
