Woman viciously attacked

Do-gooders beware! Woman viciously attacked after returning lost iPhone to its rightful owners

A Fredericksburg, Virginia, resident thought she was doing the right thing when she returned a lost iPhone to its owners, but what she did not know is that it is going to end in her beating.

The 53-year-old victim told police that she spotted an iPhone outside a 7-Eleven store on Lafayette Boulevard while shopping on Wednesday evening.

The woman was able to reach the owner, and they arranged a meeting so that she could give the iPhone back, NBC Washington has reported.

Officials said the owner of the phone even offered a small reward in exchange for the return of the phone.

The unidentified victim met the owner and his female companion near Mr Dee’s Restaurant on Lafayette Boulevard, according to police.

Once the phone exchanged hands, the Good Samaritan was given a small amount of money in return, but that is when things started to go wrong.

The victim told police that she was walking away when the man grabbed her from behind and hurled her to the ground.

The assailant took the cash back and kicked the woman while she was still sprawled on the ground, officials said.

The iPhone owners were last seen driving away in a gold-colored Honda Accord.

The condition of the 53-year-old woman remains unknown.
