UPDATE 10:15 p.m.: An arrest has been made in connection with a purse snatching that occurred Monday.

Gregory Lee Lassiter, 34, of Suffolk, was arrested Thursday evening and has been charged with robbery, identity theft, criminally receiving goods/services fraudulently, credit card theft, credit card forgery and credit card fraud, according to a city news release.

He is being held at Western Tidewater Regional Jail with no bond.

Police say the 79-year-old victim was shopping with her daughter at Kohl’s in the 6200 block of College Drive about 2:14 p.m. Monday. As the women exited the store and approached their car, a black male snatched the woman’s purse and caused her to fall to the ground, suffering injuries.

On Tuesday, a white man used a credit card that was in the purse at a Chesapeake Square-area Target in two different transactions at 9:36 a.m. and 1:33 p.m. Surveillance photos were released earlier Thursday.

“This is another perfect example of what can be accomplished when the community, the media and law enforcement work as a team utilizing the extremely successful Crime Line program,” a city news release stated.

The investigation remains ongoing, according to the news release.
