A 22-year-old woman was robbed shortly after noon Monday in the parking lot of a Gilbert Ross Dress for Less, police said.
The woman was loading her child and purchases into her vehicle when a man approached her from behind as she stood at the driver’s door, police said. He allegedly took the woman’s purse from the vehicle, police said.
Police describe the suspect as a man between 5’6” and 5’10” tall, weighing between 140 and 150 lbs. He was seen leaving in a black pickup truck. No injuries were sustained and a weapon wasn’t seen or used during the incident.
The investigation is ongoing.

Gilbert, "Best Place To Live" who are they kidding. I'm glad the mom and child didn't get hurt.

A "man?" Was he blonde, brunette, black, latino? Just a MAN between 5 ' 6" and 5'10: weighing between 140 and 150 pounds?? Interesting. The police should have a great time hunting someone with that description. :(

How about a better description Gilbert PD? Or you just too pu ssy to actually provide a race because he is black and don't want to sound racist; yet are the first to say if the perp is white?

A detailed description might help?

I will keep my eyes open for a 5'6" to 5'10" 140 to 150# man.

Ok, so a man at 150 and 5'6" is medium to stocky build and a man at 5'10" and 140# is thin to gangly. And we don't know hair color or skin color or any other identifying marks. Completely worthless.

what are you all talking about.......the PD did give the best description by saying he drove a black pick-up truck!
