June 1, 2001 10:24: AN ELDERLY woman on her way home from a concert was mugged as she walked along an Eltham road.
The 80-year-old had her bag stolen, which contained £130 cash and her glasses, in Court Road.
She has been left traumatised by the robbery and has suffered bruising to her right arm and shoulder.
A police spokesman said: "The only description is he was 6ft but, because of the area, there should have been a fair number of witnesses driving by and we urge them to come forward."
Anyone with information about the incident, at 10.30pm on May 17, should call PC Chris Doran, at Plumstead, on 0208 284 9454 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
