Robbery Suspect Arrested
After Assaulting 72 Year Old Victim
On August
9, 2009 Brian Scott Green, 50, was placed under arrest in the 1300 block of E.
Broadway Rd, Tempe stemming from an incident that took place in the parking lot
of Target located at 1818 E Baseline Rd, Tempe.
On June
26, 2009 the elderly female victim was in the parking lot of the Target store
located in the area of McClintock and Baseline Rd, Tempe when she was approached
by Green.
Green
offered to help the victim load her items into her vehicle. The victim refused
and asked Green to leave her alone. Green then pushed the victim with both his
hands and grabbed at her vehicle keys which were attached to her purse.
Green was
able to remove the keys from the victim’s purse and drove away in the victim’s
vehicle. On August 5, 2009 the victim’s stolen vehicle was recovered by Phoenix
PD and returned to the victim.
Once the
victim’s vehicle was returned to her she located a prescription bottle in the
passenger compartment. The bottle displayed the name Brian Green. The victim
provided that information to Tempe Police Detectives.
During
the follow-up investigation, Brian Scott Green was identified by the victim and
was contacted by Detectives. Green was placed under arrest at approximately
10:10 AM on August 9, 2009 and was transported to Tempe City Jail where he was
booked and charged with one count of Robbery (A class four felony) and Motor
Vehicle theft (A class three felony).
As safety
is our number one concern, The Tempe Police Department would like to remind the
public to be mindful of their personal safety and their surroundings.
