The 72-year-old was left with a suspected broken nose following Jane McDonnell's attack
A woman battered a pensioner with his own walking stick before robbing his pizza. Jade McDonnell, 27, approached the elderly man as he sat down for a rest after a day of shopping in Manchester city centre.
He bought two pizzas from a takeaway on Drake Street, before crossing the road to sit down. "He then saw a woman, this defendant, approach him and she demanded his pizza," prosecutor Maxwell Cope told the court. A passing delivery cyclist intervened and managed to diffuse the situation, before McDonnell fled with the pizza, walking stick and the man's shopping. He was left with a suspected broken nose, as well as cuts and bruises.
