On August 6th, 2004, at approximately 6:30 PM, a woman was the victim
of an attempted robbery on the 2300 block of Bancroft Way (near the
intersection of Elsworth St.). The victim was walking westbound when
a male suspect came up from behind and began pushing her and pulling
on her backpack. The victim struggled with the suspect, and he relented
and left the area.
The victim did not report the crime until recently, so no immediate
area check was conducted.
The victim described the suspect as follows:
A White Male, 50 years old, 5'8", 150 lbs., gray hair, wearing
blue plaid shirt and blue jeans.
