Police describe the suspect as a woman in her 20s, standing about 5 feet 4 inches tall with long, black hair.

The getaway car is described as a green Jeep.

Witnesses said a man is driving the car, and there might be a small child in the back seat.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
