The woman, who suffered a minor injury to her hand in the attack in Clarendon Park, Leicester, has told police the bag contained irreplaceable photographs of her grandchildren.
The attacker targeted the woman in Montague Road. He pulled her bag from her arm and ran away toward nearby Seymour Road, where he joined a second man. The victim has told police the bag also contained cash, bank cards and her bus pass.
