Another Melrose robbery

For the eighth time in two weeks, a robber has hit the stretch of Melrose Avenue between Fairfax and La Brea. The latest, at 5:30 pm on Wednesday, occurred just off Melrose on Genesee Avenue when three young men jumped out of a car and snatched a purse from one of two women walking together. The muggers then got back in the car and drove off. No descriptions of the suspects, including race, have been in the coverage I've seen. LAT, Melrose Action
