Manage episode 244133851 series 2360190
If you’re walking at night, especially if you’re a woman, I bet you carry your keys a specific way. I bet your phone is near your hand. I bet you’re extra alert when rounding corners or turning down dark streets. After all, there’s almost certainly a mugger right around that bend!

This week we talk about muggings, how common they are, and what you can do to protect yourself.
