Just witness a mugging at Central Market

This just happened. I was walking out of the store and heard a girl screaming and it was the kind of scream where I knew something was wrong. I started walking toward the noise with my phone ready on 911 and saw an employee and elderly gentleman were already by her and she was crying. They said the suspect ran off (I think he took her purse and phone). I am never going there at night alone again. Wtf. The one night the police aren’t standing at the front of the store like they usually do which is probably why the suspect knew it was a good time to do it. She was right behind me and I missed it by a hair. Please be safe out there and aware of your surroundings. I feel so awful for her.
