Jan fights off mugger in France
VETERAN presenter and newsreader Jan Leeming has been the victim of a terrifying mugging.
Jan, 80, was “rugby tackled” to the ground by a masked man in “sleepy little village” in France.
The former BBC star posted: “Horrid experience. Attacked close to ATM friends were using.
“Rugby tackled to ground. Bag was over my arm – he didn’t get it. Got six-inch gash on arm back of hand black and blue
“Only grateful he got nothing BUT he also got away with the attack. It was horrid but well orchestrated with a getaway car.”
She added: “’Please don’t worry. I’m absolutely fine – not traumatised one little bit. Just sore with a few bruises and a massive dressing on my arm.”
