ING form for the last verb
"She sifted through the evidence bags and selected one, handing it to him."
Teachers, please help me with this. I've always had a problem with this kind of structure using its ~ing form for the last verb in a sentence, like "haning it to him" in this one. Can I just write it like, "She sifted through the evidence bags and selected one, and then handed it to him."
