On Monday, KSP responded to a robbery complaint on Beaver Dam Road in the Colson community.
They say two subjects in a small, red, 4-door passenger car pulled into a residential driveway where an elderly woman was exiting her vehicle.
A white male approached the woman and asked to use her phone, that is when he grabbed her purse before fleeing in the car.
