Police are looking for the man who stole a purse from a woman in a Hamden driveway at gunpoint yesterday.
A relative of a Hepburn Road homeowner was getting into her car in a driveway on Monday when a man with a gun grabbed her purse and ran off, police said.
Police responded to the home around 5 p.m. to investigate and were not able to find the armed purse snatcher.
About two hours after the robbery, the victim’s credit card was used at Target in Orange.
Police are looking for a man who is around 5-feet-11 and between 18 and 25 years old. He was wearing a black T-shirt and a hat.
Police released a photo of the man who used the victim's credit card. He was wearing a black "Damn I'm Good T-shirt" and a black hat.
Anyone with information about the armed street robbery or the man who used the stolen credit card is asked to call Detective Brian Stewart at (203) 230-4000.
