Purse Snatched Off Woman on Eastern Parkway

At about 2:00 in the afternoon yesterday, a Jewish woman from Borough Park was walking on Eastern Parkway near Rogers Ave. when she was accosted by a mugger, who snatched her purse and ran off.

Police arrived at the scene, but were unable to interview the woman due to a strong language barrier.

Eventually, the woman’s daughter called Shomrim, who came to the scene and assisted the victim with the filing of a police report.
