A woman and her two-year-old daughter were robbed on their way home from church Tuesday, January 20 around 9 p.m. The 27-year-old mother pulled into a parking lot at 7481 Lee Highway when two men emerged from the bushes and approached her car. One man walked up to the driver’s door, while another approached the passenger’s side, opened the rear door and grabbed the baby. One of the suspects then produced a knife, threatened the driver and her child and demanded money. The victim handed over her belongings, and the suspects fled on foot. There were no injuries.
One suspect was described as around 5 feet 9 inches tall and 150 pounds. The other was described as around 6 feet 1 inch tall and 175 pounds. Both men wore black ski masks, black jackets, blue jeans and black gloves.
