<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">A 65-year-old New Castle woman who had just left the Walgreens Pharmacy, was at the driver’s side of her vehicle, in the process of unlocking the door. Before she could enter her vehicle, a green SUV, possibly a Chevrolet Suburban, pulled up alongside her, at which time the passenger reached out the window and grabbed the strap of her purse. Once the passenger had taken hold of the purse the operator of the vehicle accelerated, which in turn dragged the victim to the ground. The victim was able to retain her purse, and the vehicle fled on Christiana Road westbound towards Newark. As a result of being knocked to the ground, the victim sustained head and hip injuries for which she was transported to the Christiana Hospital for treatment.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The suspects were described as black males in their early 2o’s, clean cut and the operator was possibly wearing a black bandana on his head.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The above still image of the suspect vehicle was taken from security camera footage from within the shopping center. No known video of the suspects is available at this time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">If anyone has information regarding this incident, they are asked to contact detective D. Dukes of the Troop 2 Robbery Unit at 302-365-8412. Information may also be provided by calling Delaware Crimestoppers at 1-800-TIP-3333 or via the internet at http://www.delaware.crimestoppersweb.com</span></p>
