Police say a 76-year-old woman was pushed to the ground and robbed after withdrawing money from a bank on San Antonio’s west side.

SAN ANTONIO — Police are investigating after a 76-year-old woman was robbed outside her west San Antonio home in what officers say appears to be a jugging incident.

According to the San Antonio Police Department, officers were called around 10:10 a.m. Saturday to the 10300 block of Lion Chase after the woman reported being robbed.

The woman told officers she had just withdrawn money from a local bank for an upcoming trip before driving home.

When she arrived at her residence, police say an unknown man got out of a silver SUV and approached her.

Investigators say the suspect pushed the woman to the ground and grabbed two envelopes containing the money before fleeing the scene.

The victim was treated for minor injuries at the scene, according to police.

The suspect left before officers arrived, and no arrests have been made.

Police say the case remains an active investigation, and the information released so far is subject to change.
