On a walk through the River Market in a parking lot on Clinton Avenue, two women came face-to-face with a robber and gun.
Neither one of them were injured, but the thief got away with their purses and everything inside, all worth just over $1,000.
Another person driving by when it all happened called police, who responded, but the robber was nowhere to be seen.
The suspect later dumped the purses by the Arkansas Game and Fish building.
Thanks to another kind person who later found the dumped purses, police returned them to the women, with everything besides cash and an iPhone the two women claimed were inside still there.
Police say the person they are looking for stands about 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs approximately 120 pounds. At the time of the robbery, he was wearing a yellow and red bandana and a burgundy hat with baggy blue jeans.
They don't have a name for this person, only that he's about 17 to 20 years old.
If you have any information on the robbery you're asked to call Little Rock Police.
