I was walking home last night around 11 p.m. (after being forced to see Sex in the City where I was and-I-kid-you-not one of 10 men in a packed theater), and saw a black purse in front of 2630 Adams Mill Rd. It was on the ledge, in the grass, open and some of its contents spilled out.
I didn't touch it but flagged down a DC cop driving by and told him about it. He checked it out and called it in.
It had all the earmarks of a stolen purse that the thief discarded after removing any valuables before, in all probability, then fleeing in the nearby park.
That's one thing about purses that I don't like. They're easily snatched unlike satchel bags.
