Just after 4:30 p.m. yesterday, Boca Raton Police responded to an attempted
robbery in the east parking lot at 6000 W Glades Road. As the victim was walking towards her

on foot without possession of the bag. The victim sustained minor injuries.

The suspect is described as a white female of average height, approximately 30 to 50 years old,
with brown hair. She was wearing a light-colored shirt and dark pants. Officers conducted a
