The complainant was out to buy milk when a man riding a bike with a woman on the pillion intercepted her. The two threatened her with a knife and snatched her gold chain worth Rs 60,000 before pushing her down, he said.
The woman told the police that it all happened in a matter of seconds and she was too shocked to remember any details about the duo, said the official, adding that an investigation is underway to track down the chain-snatchers.
