Elderly Woman Robbed On Her Way To Church

An elderly woman is recovering at the hospital after she was attacked on her way to a Bryan church this morning.

Police say they arrested 20-year-old Jaquarios Neal for breaking into a vehicle before he mugged 95 year old Edna Earl Jackson.

Investigators say after Neal broke in the vehicle, he stole Jackson's purse and money as she was walking to the First United Methodist Church in Bryan.

Bryan police were able to catch Neal a few blocks away from the church.

Jackson was taken to the hospital for head lacerations and a broken hip.
