Armed man attempts to rob woman with child in her car at ATM machine

GREENE COUNTY, Pa. — State police in Waynesburg said they are searching for a man accused of attempting to rob a mother who was using a drive-through automated teller machine.

Investigators said a Rices Landing woman was using an ATM at the First National Bank in Jefferson Township when a man with a gun approached her car.

The victim told Channel 11 News that her 5-year-old was in the car with her at the time of the incident.

She said the man demanded that she give him all of her money and her cellphone.

“(He said) 'Withdraw all that money out of there, everything you have, and give me your cellphone.'  I looked at him and said, ‘I don’t have that much money in there,’” said the victim, who didn’t want Channel 11 to reveal her identity.

The woman left her card in the machine and took off.

“I went right to the Giant Eagle and told them to call police," she said.

So far, no arrests have been made.
