Mysteriously laying along roadside missing purse and shoes… [Developing]
Hyannis – Shortly after 7:30pm last evening Barnstable Police located a woman laying in between the Cape Cod Mall and the Courtyard Marriott Hotel.
The woman in her early 30s was found laying next to a light pole after a reporting party pointed police in the right direction. Police were also informed that moments earlier she had been involved in an argument with a man who took both her purse and shoes.
The area was almost completely dark and she would have remained unnoticed if it wasn’t for some alert witnesses.
Police did not find the woman in need of immediate rescue or medical services.
Her relationship to the man who made off with her belongings was still uncertain. She knew the man’s name, what he drove, and where he lived. But police did not mention if there was probable cause for an arrest at this time.
A check for the man’s Ford model pickup at an address in the West Main Street area of Hyannis was unsuccessful.
Police indicated the young woman was likely from the local area. Other sources reveal ties to West Yarmouth. Her name is being withheld from this story due to the likelihood of her victimization in this incident.
The woman was transported to Police Headquarters for a further investigation into what actually was going on.
The situation was unusual to say the least and the severity of the circumstances is still in question.
Hyannis News will provide updates as they become available.
