On Friday, September 9, 2022, at 2:25 p.m., Austin Police Department (APD) officers responded to another case of Jugging. The victim, a woman, had withdrawn money from Wells Fargo, located at 10900 Research Blvd. After the transaction, two suspects in a gray, four-door BMW followed her home.

As the victim entered her home, the first suspect ran up behind her, violently attacked her, and stole her purse, which had the money from the bank inside. During the assault, the suspect threw the victim around and dragged her across the pavement. The victim was taken to the hospital for her injuries.
