What kind of scumbag comes up behind a 78-year-old woman on the sidewalk, knocks her down, and runs off with her purse? This guy, say cops, and they have the video to prove it. It happened while she was walking with her husband and granddaughter on Arthur Avenue, near 188th Street at about 11:25 p.m. last Friday, April 15.
