On Nov. 11 officers were called to the 3800 block of Victory Circle where they met the 88-year-old victim, according to a news release. The woman told officers two men came to her home to discuss trimming trees in her backyard, and she took one of them there to take a look at it, the release states.
After the men left, the woman received a phone call from her credit card company questioning a suspicious transaction, and discovered her purse had been taken from her home, according to the release.
