87-year-old robbed

On Feb. 6, Clarendon County Sheriff’s Sgt. Tad Broadway responded to Greeleyville Highway in reference to someone stealing from an 87-year-old woman. The woman told Broadway that a white male between the ages of 40 and 50 came to her home offering to do some housework. The woman told Broadway that when the man asked her for money, she told him she didn’t have any. She said he saw her purse on the table and stole $60 out of it as she watched and told him not to take it. She said he asked for more money, but she said she told him she didn’t have any more and he left her home. Broadway said that as he looked around the outside of the woman’s home he noticed that the telephone line leading into the home had but cut.
