The robbery was reported shortly before 4 p.m. Friday in the rear parking lot of the South Florida Kosher Market at 1324 NE 163rd St.
According to an incident report, the 67-year-old woman, who has not been identified, was walking back to her car from the supermarket when she was approached by two men who ordered her to hand over her purse.
Police said the woman refused and a struggle ensued. One of the men, who was armed with a handgun, pushed the woman into her Toyota Camry and the robbers snatched $1,000 in cash from her purse.
The woman, who normally uses a cane due to arthritis and other injuries, wasn’t carrying it with her at the time of the robbery.
“This guy is on my right side. This guy is on my left side. He takes the gun, and he starts hitting me, hits my head with the gun, hit my shoulder and my back also,” she told WSVN news.
The victim was also hit on the top of her head, leaving a gash.
“He hit me a few times with the gun, so my whole face swelled up,” she said.
That money included several hundred dollars in charity donations she was going to drop off after her grocery store run.
Authorities said the armed robber continued pointing the gun at the victim as she walked away and searched for help.
According to the incident report, the second robber rummaged through the car and stole the victim’s cellphone.
Witnesses told police they saw the robbers run west on Northeast 162nd Street toward 13th Avenue after the incident.
Anyone with information about the robbers’ identities is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-8477.
This occurred at South Florida Kosher Market parking lot in broad daylight. NMB is a heavily minority (shvartze) populated area. Last year there was an armed robbery at Kosher Kingdom in Aventura. They now have a security guard posted at the entrance. Yidden now is the time to start believing what the Tzaddik HaRav Meir Kahane ZT’L said all along, defend yourself NEVER AGAIN! Get your CCW & permit. Learn to shoot!
the crazies are posting
When you are not a local you do not know all the nuances. Miami and NMB are full of things like this happening quite often.
They also might have known that this woman was carrying a lot of money, maybe this is a weekly run.
