A Mabelvale woman chased after a robber who entered her vehicle Tuesday morning and snatched money out of her hand, according to police.

The 35-year-old victim told police that she was sitting in her vehicle filling out a form to pay a bill at 11:45 a.m. in the 2100 block of South Maple Street in Little Rock when someone approached the driver's side.

A short time later, the woman said, the robber opened her driver’s-side door and took $200 from her before running away, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.
