AITAH for giving a “i told you so” moment when my sister got robbed

So I, 25F have a younger sister, 23F. We live in a very bad part of our town, lots of robberies and gang violence. So when my sister wanted to buy a new handbag, i told her it probably wasn’t the best idea to flash it out in the public, especially since we live in a high crime area. She dismissed me saying that she would be careful. Fast forward a couple days, she comes back crying. A man snatched her purse (the one she bought) and ran off. Luckily she was unharmed but she was still mad. I then told her “I told you, you shouldn’t flash expensive stuff in a high crime area”, She got offended and told me to “read the room” and it wasn’t the time for a “i told you so moment”. Me and her haven’t been on speaking terms for some days because of it.

I understand that it was neither the time or place to tell her that but in my understanding i gave her genuine advice and she dismissed it. Honestly if you play stupid games you win stupid prizes.
