(Richmond, IN)--There are no indications that any arrests have been made after the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office issued a warning yesterday about a robbery in the Toschlog Road area.  The incident happened on Wednesday in the 1200 block of Toschlog Road.  An elderly female was robbed when a man in a black SUV pulled in front of her with his hazards on.  He coerced the victim to stop and told her she had a flat tire.  The department encouraged residents to use caution if approached by unknown individuals in the roadway and to stay inside vehicles with the doors and windows locked.  Persons of interest have been identified but not yet taken into custody.

Editor's Note:  People often use the term "robbery" when it's not actually a robbery.  Yesterday's event was an actual robbery.  Here's the difference.  If you take something from a place where you're allowed to be, that's theft.  If you break in to somewhere you're not allowed to be, that's burglary (for example, it is impossible for your car or house to be robbed).  If you take something from someone by force or threat of force, that's robbery.
