MARMORA — State Police are investigating the robbery of an 87-year-old woman in her Bayview Avenue home mid-morning on Fri., May 6.
According to police, a report was made to Woodbine Station at 10:13 a.m. from a Bayview Avenue residence of a robbery.

Shortly thereafter, the suspect grabbed the victim’s purse and darted from the home through the rear door.
Once alone, the victim alerted State Police.
Troopers searched the area for the suspect, but without results. They reported it was unknown if the suspect fled on foot or in a vehicle.
