A Chinese court ordered a mugger's intended victim to pay his attacker 70,000 yuan ($11,000) after he fought off the attempted robbery and beat him up, state-run media reported Wednesday. The court sentenced the mugging target, identified only as Yuan, to three months' probation along with the fine, the Global Times newspaper said. The would-be thief, named only as Zeng, tried to steal Yuan's cell phone in Dongguan but he turned on the mugger and chased after him with two other men, the report said.
