The use of furtive in this text isn't used very well. I rarely hear this word, so using something like stealth or slyness might be better. Also, this sentence: "with great dexterity and stealth, stole his wallet" doesn't make much sense. The reason why is because the next sentence says that he realized he was stolen from. If that's the case then the foreigner who stole from him didn't actually do it "with great dexterity and stealth" if that makes sense.
Also, the last few words don't make any sense - "pursued by the thief and his dangerous friends" because you mention how he recovered his wallet, but now all of a sudden he's been perused by the thief and his dangerous friends. This is the first time we're seeing his friends as well which is confusing.
joshx2: You can leave off "from the thief." at the end in the last sentence. I didn't mean to write that in there. Thief is already mentioned so it's redundant for that last part to be in there.
