    Decatur Police Arrest Kroger Purse Snatcher

    Decatur Metro | August 3, 2009 | 11:37 am

    More good work by the Decatur police.

    I wrote a note to DPD this morning asking about a “robbery” near Kroger, which showed up on Crimereports.com, this past weekend.  An hour later I received this Decatur Police Arrest Alert:

    On Saturday, August 1, 2009, a “robbery by snatch” occurred in the parking lot of 720 Commerce Drive. Approximately 15 minutes later Decatur Police officers arrested the suspect without incident. The stolen purse was recovered, no items were missing from purse, and it was returned to the victim at the scene.

    No weapon was involved in this crime.

    The suspect is not a Decatur resident.

      Confused… Didn’t see anything remotely resembling what you indicated at that link.

      Just so folks don’t think I’m talking to myself, the message I was replying to has apparently disappeared from this thread. Though just for the record, I do talk to myself a lot too, so don’t be surprised when I do it.
