Police in Osaka are searching for a man who assaulted a woman and stole her boots. The 27 year old woman was walking home at 11:30pm on Friday night, when a man dressed in black wrestled her to the ground, grabbed her legs, and stripped her of her boots. She also had a handbag but the man made no attempt to steal it. Police say this is the fourth such incident since last summer and suspect it is the same culprit.
