RIGHT NOW, I'M BUSY WORKING ON A STORY FOR NEWS 4 AT NOON. IT INVOLVES SOME PRETTY CLEAR SURVEILLANCE VIDEO GIVEN TO US BY THE SAINT LOUIS COUNTY POLICE DEPARTMENT.
YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT ON KMOV.COM LATER THIS MORNING AFTER 9AM.
POLICE ARE LOOKING FOR AT LEAST 4 SUSPECTS----THREE YOUNG GUYS AND A YOUNG WOMAN WHO THEY SAY PUSHED DOWN A 65 YEAR OLD WOMAN OUTSIDE A T-J MAXX STORE ON OLIVE BOULEVARD MONDAY, THEN STOLE HER PURSE.
THE SURVEILLANCE VIDEO IS FROM ONE OF THE STORES AT THE WEST COUNTY MALL, SHORTLY AFTER THE ROBBERY, ACCORDING TO POLICE.
IT'S A SHAME YOUNG PEOPLE, WITH NO MORALS, ARE PREYING ON THE ELDERLY.
FORTUNATELY, THIS NERVOUS 65 YEAR OLD VICTIM, WHO SUFFERED SOME CHEST PAIN, WASN'T SERIOUSLY HURT. NONETHELESS, YOU HAVE TO WONDER HOW IS SHE DOING TODAY? HOW TRAUMATIZED IS SHE BY THIS INCIDENT, AND IS SHE NOW AFRAID TO GO TO THE MALL?

WITH A LOT OF THESE CRIME STORIES I LIKE TO END WITH HELPFUL NUMBERS FOR THE PUBLIC. IF YOU'RE READING THIS BLOG, AND I HOPE YOU ARE, THEN YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION FOR POLICE CALL SAINT LOUIS POLICE AT (314) 615-2341 OR CRIMESTOPPERS AT 1-866-371-TIPS.

THANKS!
