On Thursday, Nov. 29, deputies said a male suspect walked up to an elderly woman and asked her for money in the parking lot of an Aldi grocery store off Santa Barbara Boulevard in Collier County. When she refused, he grabbed her purse and pushed her to the ground. Still on the run Monday night, Collier County Sheriff’s Office wants help from the public to identify the thief accused of shoving an elderly woman and robbing her. “It’s a despicable act,” Bruce Carlson said. “It really truly is.” Carlson shops at this Aldi location often. “With the holidays and all, it’s just words can’t describe how horrendous it is,” Carlson said. Lorna Ayers said the holidays could also have something to do with the actions of someone like this suspect. “I definitely think that there is more cause for someone to do this,” Ayers said. “They want to buy gifts for their family.” Anyone who recognizes the suspect is encouraged to contact CCSO Detective Clervoix at 239-252-9300.
