Katie´s Story
Going by Tram

Katie is going to town with a friend in the afternoon. At first they have a good time. But then they get into a row with each other and separate. Katie takes the tram to go home. At first she is angry, then quite sad. After two stations a man takes the opposite bench. He gazes at her intently and tries to start a conversation. Katie doesn´t like this; so she ignores him and keeps looking out of the window. The man doesn´t talk anymore, but continues glaring at Katie. At her usual stop she gets out. The man who has been bothering her leaves the tram too. Katie goes home, that´s a walk of about 10 minutes. The man takes the same direction following her. Katja is not very fond of this; but she is still thinking about the row with her friend, so she doesn´t care. Besides, the street is busy, there are many people and open shops - so Katie feels safe. After a while she turns into a quiet side street. Suddenly the man is closely behind her and tries to drag her into the entrance of a house. After the first shock she screams loud and kicks at him. The man runs away. Katie goes home.

Katie has defended herself successfully. Yet perhaps she could have protected herself before the attack happened. What would you have done if you had been in Katies place?Interview
