By Esther Tan

A WOMAN in her late 20s lost $330 worth of cash and valuables when her wallet was pickpocketed on Wednesday.

She last saw her wallet when she paid for a purchase at a shopping centre along Orchard Road at about 5pm. She recalled that while shopping along Orchard Road, many people bumped into her because of the crowd.

When she got home at 11pm, she found a hole in her bag and her wallet gone. The $70 wallet contained about $260 and personal documents.
