NASHVILLE, TENN. — This is something that should never happen, much less to a female senior citizen leaving a church bible study.<\/p>\n

A 70-year-old victim walking to her car midday Tuesday in the parking lot of Lebanon Church of Christ, 2307 Lebanon Pike, suffered broken bones in her right hand and facial injuries after a man in a pickup truck robbed her of her purse and caused her to fall to the pavement.<\/p>\n

The robber, identified by Hermitage Precinct detectives from surveillance video as Gilbert D. Ostring, Jr., 48, drove up to the victim in his silver Dodge 1500 pickup truck under the guise of asking her the location of any nearby shelters. He then reached out of his window, grabbed the victim\u2019s purse and forcibly yanked it away, causing the 70-year-old to hit the asphalt hard.<\/p>\n
