Greenville Deputies say a 73-year-old woman was robbed at a Sulphur Springs Road K-Mart Sunday when a man snatched her purse out of her hands and drove off.
Deputies said she was loading her car with her purchases when she was robbed.
The suspect is described as a short white man in his 20s, driving a midsize, dark colored vehicle. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoopers at 23-CRIME.
