Woman says she was knocked out, robbed

  • Follow Latest News

A 50-year-old Hephzibah woman said she was knocked unconscious for almost five hours, according to a report from the Richmond County Sheriff's Office.

The woman told police she was leaving Walgreens, 3204 Peach Orchard Road, about 9:40 p.m. Friday after picking up a prescription. As she drove toward the back exit, she said, she was approached by a man who asked for $5. When she told him she had no money, the man hit her in her face with his hand, knocking her unconscious, she told police.

When she regained consciousness about 2:30 a.m., she said, she was still in her car in the store's parking lot, according to the report.

The woman said that three $100 bills were missing from her purse.

The reporting officer noted in the report that he did not see any visible signs of injuries on the victim. The woman refused medical treatment.

She's driving to the back

She's driving to the back exit when she's approached. That means she had
to stop and probably let her window down. The guy hits her, but the car doesn't keep rolling so she must have put it in park. Then she sits there blocking the exit for 5 hours, and the neither the employees or anyone else notices the car. Instead of grabbing the purse and running the perp just takes the $100 bills. Something is wrong with this picture.

Ok... be reasonable here. 1)

Ok... be reasonable here. 1) When you get knocked out, you do not stay out for 5 hours. 2) Any blow powerful enough to knock a person out will leave visible marks especially if it is in the facial area. I don't think we are getting the full story and its very suspicious that she wasn't "noticed" for 5 hours in a lit parking lot. Sounds like more of a scam or set up to try and file a lawsuit against Wal-Greens.

According to nationwide crime

According to nationwide crime reports this scenario is a very common form of robbery. The perp acts real nice, smiling and waving and saying “hey hey”, then when you hit the auto roll down button they approach very nicely and say “I just have a question” completely non threatening. Then they put the sucker punch to you before you even know it and it is generally in the hairline so there are no marks. Then the perp pushes you over and parks the car nice & neat so as not to draw any attention so they have plenty of time to go through your things. I almost got sucker punched this morning by a young black guy but thought about the same thing which happened up the street. I nicely said “STOP you can ask me your question from there”, he kept coming, then i said "back" and held my hand up, and he stopped and began to judge the distance between us and you could just see the look that he knew his con was up and he really had no queston. My quick reaction and my kindly saying “You can ask your question from there” saved me from his being close enough to sucker punch me and being early in the morning i was completely unarmed.

Doesn't Walgreens have

Doesn't Walgreens have security cameras in the parking lot? Did the lady have a bruise or abrasion on her face? There are no grounds for a legal action against Walgreens, because she entered her vehicle, started the vehicle, and was driving out when she made the personal decision to stop the vehicle and roll down her window. If being foolish and naive were felonies, she would be on death row.

Dixieman - everyone already

Dixieman - everyone already knew that you and your alien allies were behind this. By the way, I wonder how many people have been keeping up with your edits slowly revealing the details of the crime?
By the way Dixie, you are here legally, right?

Okay, about the avatar: When

Okay, about the avatar: When I chose the name "Dixieman" I looked on the Internet for a good photo to go with it...typed in "southern man" and one of the ones that came back was this weird one I chose, a guy who is a Chinese performance artist in Denmark (I know, I know...odd) whose sign (in Danish) evidently reads "Dogs and yellow people not allowed" with the word "not" crossed out. It makes no logical sense at all as my avatar, which is why I like it so much!
Now you know the secret of my identity!

Dixieman - I already knew the secret of your identity - an extraterrestrial legal alien who abducts earth creatures for scientific research, wipes their memories and returns them to their cars after removing the fuel. Don't worry, I won't tell.
I like your avatar - stands out, just like your comic relief comments.
