INDIANAPOLIS -- A University of Indianapolis student has a warning for other women after she was robbed at gunpoint by a man on Indianapolis' south side.
The 21-year-old woman, who asked that she not be identified, was loading groceries into her car around 7:30 last Monday night when a man came up behind her and told her not to scream.
"He said 'Just let me do what I got to do,'" she said. "He looks at me and my purse is in the passenger seat of my car, so he takes that and then he starts walking away."
He took her purse and was about to take off when the woman asked if she could have her ID.
The man gave it to her, got into a car and fled the scene.
A few hours later, somebody found her purse on the side of the road and returned it. The only thing missing was less than $100 in cash.
Police have not made an arrest in the case.
The woman said she's sharing her story because she wants others to be extra vigilant so they don't become victims.
