Enfield police are investigating a strong-arm robbery which occurred Wednesday night.
According to the report, a female victim was robbed of her pocketbook and pushed out of the vehicle.
In a statement Chief Chuck Hasty said around 8:30 officers responded to the intersection of East Franklin Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue about a person lying in the street.
The officers located the victim, who Hasty said refused transport to a hospital, and learned the person had been robbed and assaulted.
Before the robbery and assault, the victim had been dropped off after getting into a disagreement with other people in the vehicle in which she was riding.
