    I agree, the headline is unclear. It should be “gets her bag stolen” or as you suggested, “had her bag stolen”.

    Better yet, the main object of this sentence, her bag, should be at the front of the headline. “Bag stolen from Britain’s Crime Minister” is funnier (in my opinion), more concise, and eliminates the “where”, which can be put in a byline/sub-headline, or just left in the article as a gem for the reader to find.
