NEW YORK (Reuters) - The son of former morning television host Bryant Gumbel was arrested on Thursday on charges he snatched a
purse from a woman walking on a Manhattan sidewalk.

Bradley Christopher Gumbel, 24, was accused of approaching a woman from behind as she walked along Manhattan's posh Upper East
Side, grabbing her purse and fleeing, police said.

The unidentified victim, 31, contacted police, who arrested Gumbel a few blocks away at 2:30 a.m.

Gumbel was arrested on charges of assault and robbery, and he was awaiting arraignment in state Supreme Court in Manhattan.

The woman suffered scrapes but refused medical attention, police said. Her purse had not been recovered, they said.
