SECURITY ALERT:

A woman today was robbed of her purse today at 5p at the Food Lion on Guess Rd. Thankfully, she was not personally assaulted or injured. A small (ie, Honda Civic, Mazda, Toyota Corolla) dark colored, she thinks it was two-door, drove up beside her while she was loading groceries into the front passenger seat/floorboard of her car. There were two men in the car. Her purse, including all ID, credit cards, cell phone, check book, etc was in the front passenger seat. The driver of the vehicle jumped out of his car and reached over her shouldar and grabbed her purse, jumped back into his car and drove off on Horton Rd towards Duke St. Sarah was able to obtain a portion of the vehicle's license plate #, however, the plate was literally a plate - an "unofficial" temporary, paper plate affixed to his car. A police report was filed on the scene. As the thief stole her driver's license with her address, she wanted everyone in the community to be especially vigilant of any strangers/strange vehicles in our neighborhood.
