Purse-Snatchers Strike As Woman Leaves Herndon Bank: Police

HERNDON, VA -- A woman was startled by two men who grabbed her purse and ran as she left a bank in Herndon, police say.

The woman was leaving a bank in the 1000 block of Alabama Drive on Dec. 28 when "she was approached by two men who took her purse and ran off," according to a report from the Herndon Police Department. The report does not list the bank, but there is a Wells Fargo in that general area.
