Man with gun robs woman outside of Connecticut Walmart

Occurred September 30, 2013.


A woman was walking with another woman and a child when a man came up and robbed her of her purse at gunpoint, in the parking lot of a Walmart in Newington, Connecticut.

Luckily, no one was injured.  The robber was later caught by a K-9 unit at a nearby motel.

From an article:
The victim told police she had just finished shopping at the Walmart at 3164 Berlin Turnpike just before 7 p.m. and was walking to her car with another woman and a boy when a man approached her, pointed a gun at her and demanded she turn over her purse.  
The victim gave the robber her purse and he ran, police said. No one was hurt. 
A state police K-9 team was brought in and the trail led to the Grantmoor Motor Lodge at 3000 Berlin Turnpike in Newington, where police found Luis Alicea-Rodriguez, 20. 
Police said he lived at the motel and officers recovered the weapon and all of the victim’s belongings.
Walmart.  Save money.  Die faster.
