On September 20, 2019, at approximately 8:35PM, Naperville Police Officers were dispatched to the 200 Block of South Main St. for the report of an attempted strong-arm robbery.
Upon arrival, officers learned that a woman and her husband were walking together on Main St. when they were approached by two white male subjects, described as in their 20’s, who approached them on foot. One of the males pushed the female victim to the ground, while attempting to pull her purse from her grasp.
