I'm glad no one was seriously hurt. My brother-in-law was shoved to the ground from behind and his wallet was taken last year. He suffered physical injuries, including a broken nose, that were quite painful and slow to heal. Naturally, the emotional damage was intense, too, and perhaps harder to heal.
