Published: August 11th, 2012
A good Samaritan was stabbed and robbed when she stopped to assist what she thought was a stranded motorist on Thursday just south of the city of LaPorte.
LaPorte County Sheriff’s Department Chief of Detectives John Boyd says a woman had stopped her vehicle on 250 South near 100 West to lend a hand to a man who she thought was having trouble with his tan- or cream-colored Honda Sonata, when the suspect suddenly stabbed her and stole her money. While police have yet to arrest a suspect, an investigation is underway.
The incident took place early Thursday afternoon, and the victim has since been treated and released from the hospital.
