There was an attempted robbery with a pellet gun on Anawana Lake Road in Monticello, Wednesday night.
Sullivan County Undersheriff Eric Chaboty tells YWN Catskills, that two Orthodox women were walking on Anawana Lake Road near Walmart around 10:30PM, when they heard a noise behind them. Before they were able to turn around, one of them felt someone grabbing her pocketbook. They then witnessed a female perpetrator armed with a gun, and struggling to get the pocketbook.
In the struggle, the gun fell to the floor, and the perpetrator fled on foot towards WalMart, where she was seen getting into a small car.
Thankfully, no one was hurt – including their children who were walking with them at the time – and nothing was stolen.
The Sheriff Department responded along with Catskills Hatzolah. Chaboty tells YWN Catskills that the gun used is a pellet gun.
Deputies are investigating the incident, and are looking for a white female with brown hair and a ponytail, wearing a blue jacket with a zipper on the front.
If you have any further information that can assist this investigation, please contact the Sullivan County Sheriff Department.
Carried out by a large, proficient group on 20 December 2004, the gang seized £26.5 million in pounds sterling, making it one of the biggest bank robberies in British history. The police and the British and Irish governments claimed the Provisional IRA was responsible (or had permitted others to undertake the raid), a claim vehemently denied by the Provisional IRA itself and the Sinn Féin political party. The robbery, and the allegations and counter-allegations surrounding it, threw the Northern Ireland peace process into crisis.

Monday 10th. When I arrived at the bus station, I have noticed that the place has been assaulted. One of the ticket windows had two bullets holes in it. The guy behind the glass window said that this had happened to him last Thursday, around midnight hour. In fairness he does look ok, just more silent than normally.

Officer William L. Sigmon is shown in a 1965 photograph.
On May 25, 1971 Lawrence Caldwell, Eros Timm and Heidi Ann Fletcher robbed a savings and loan company at Arizona Avenue and MacArthur Blvd. NW, Washington, D.C.
There had been a spate of bank robberies across the District and police had staked out this savings and loan.
As the two men made their way out of the bank to their getaway van driven by Fletcher, two police officers burst from the back of the loan company.
Caldwell and Timm said their guns were tucked away when officer William Sigmon opened fire.
Caldwell wrote a letter to the Washington Post explaining his version:
“We were coming out of the parking lot with our backs to the door when I heard, ‘alright, hold it right there,’ Our guns were in our pockets, his was drawn. We turned to him and he fired! At that point it became an escape or die situation.”
As Sigmon pursued Timm, the officer took up a defensive position below a stairwell. Caldwell came up behind him at shot him in the back, striking his heart. Timm was wounded in the shoot-out.
The three made their escape, but hours later they were stopped in their van on Connecticut Avenue near Van Ness shopping center and arrested for murder, among other charges.
Caldwell claimed they were conducting bank robberies in order to buy a farm they hoped to use as a base for revolutionary activity.
Caldwell had a history of political activism and was arrested during a February 1970 march on the Watergate home of Attorney General John Mitchell protesting the convictions of the Chicago 7. He was one of the plaintiffs in a suit against police that resulted in the dropping of all charges against the 142 arrested that day.
He claimed that the three struck against financial institutions not for personal monetary gain, but instead to strike a blow against “banking institutions, stock exchanges, et. al.”
Fletcher, the daughter of a former deputy mayor of Washington, D.C., pled guilty and received an indeterminate sentence under the Youth Corrections Act. She served 53 months before being released.
Timm and Caldwell received life sentences. Timm was murdered in prison in 1983. Caldwell pursued somewhat of a career in prison as a jailhouse lawyer and an escape artist. He was skilled enough at brief writing to obtain hearings, sometimes winning cases including winning damages against the District of Columbia for denying him medical attention.
He tried many times to escape and succeeded for 14 months, but was recaptured. He was ultimately released in December 2003 after 33 years.
Caldwell recalled after his release, “There was a saying: ‘Kill a commie for Christ.’ So we said, ‘Off a pig for Krishna.’”

On the 28th. May 2014, the Surrey News reported an armed robbery at the premises:
Dorking Pub Manager Recalls 'Terrifying' Armed Raid
Three masked robbers stole cash from the Watermill Inn in Dorking on Friday night in front of terrified staff and customers.
The manager of a Dorking pub who had a gun pointed at him during a robbery on Friday night has spoken of the ordeal.
Dominic Roberts, 37, was working the night shift at the Watermill Inn, in Reigate Road, when three men wearing balaclavas burst into the restaurant and demanded money just before 10.30pm.
Mr Roberts said:
“I was standing by the bar when my team leader
Aaron came over to me and said that we were
being robbed.
At that moment, three men with masks on their
faces came into the restaurant, one of them was
pointing a gun at me. He swore at me and told me
to get on the ground.
The guy with the gun just stood at the entrance
and the other two guys walked over to the
restaurant till and began taking money from it.
It was bizarre because we had around 30 guests
in the pub and they didn’t know what to think, it
was surreal.”
The three men, who were wearing dark clothing, then made their getaway in a dark hatchback-style car while Mr Roberts was on the phone to the police. He said:
“The police were on the scene in two minutes,
I saw the armed response unit pass the pub in
the Reigate direction, chasing after the robbers.
All the staff who were working that night have
been left very shaken by the experience".
Robbery is the crime of taking or attempting to take something of value by force or threat of force or by putting the victim in fear.
