P.A. senior speaks out after robbery
The woman who was robbed in broad daylight in the Cornerstone Shopping District on Tuesday, is telling paNOW her story.
The 69-year-old, who asked to remain nameless, said she was on her way to the OshKosh B’gosh store to buy Christmas presents for her granddaughter.
“I put my cane out and I started getting out of the car. I had my purse in my hand, and this woman comes approaching me from behind and she says ‘oh, I can help you,’” she said.
The senior told the stranger she didn’t need help, but the woman offered help a second time, then lunged for her purse.
