The woman was robbed just before noon on Friday, Aug. 23 outside the Holy Cross Church in the 100 block of East Mount Airy Avenue.

However, police believe the suspect burglarized the church beforehand and broke into a number of vehicles parked in the area.

A dash cam inside one of those vehicles captured an image of the suspect's face. He was seen wearing a hat with the words "All Hustle, No Luck."
