Woman robbed by females on Webster Street

Two females have robbed a lone woman on Webster Street Dandenong on the night of Thursday 20 June.

The 23-year-old victim was approached by the robbers as she walked towards Princes Highway about 8.50pm.

One of the offenders told the woman to hand over her wallet. She showed them the wallet’s contents, believed to be about $45-$65 cash.

The victim’s i-Phone 7, along with the money, was snatched away by the lead offender.

With a double-handed push, the robbers shoved the victim to ground. They fled towards Princes Highway.

The victim had no reported injuries.

Both offenders were described as African appearance, about 20 years old and slim build.

The lead offender was perceived as about 172 to 175 centimetres, with short, curly black hair and wearing a dark-blue puffer jacket and black jeans.

Her co-offender was described as about 175 to 178 centimetres, with dark shoulder-length hair with blonde tips. She was wearing an Adidas jumper and blue skinny jeans.

Any information to Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au.
