A 33-year-old Ewa Beach woman has been arrested as a suspect in a purse-snatching incident last month in Waikiki.

A 27-year-old woman told police she was walking through Waikiki about 1 p.m. Nov. 29 when a woman grabbed the purse from her shoulder and ran to a waiting car.
The woman said she ran after the purse snatcher and tried to grab the purse as the other woman was getting into the passenger seat of the waiting car.
She said the woman who took the purse slammed the door on her arm, causing minor injuries.
Police said witnesses obtained the car’s license plate numbers.
The suspect was located yesterday and arrested on suspicion of second-degree robbery.
