At that moment, one of them presumably pulled her hair, while the second ripped her bag, causing her to lose her balance and fall to the ground, the uniformed woman said. The suspect took the purse containing $50, a wallet, a debit card, and insurance cards.
The victim was transported to Jacobi Hospital with a fractured hip.
