Thief Robs Woman With Stroller in Northeast Capitol Hill

A man on a bicycle stole a diaper bag and wallet from a woman who was pushing her daughter in a stroller in northeast Capitol Hill yesterday afternoon, according to the mother.

The robbery occurred near Kingsman Academy Public Charter School at the intersection of 13th and E streets NE around 12:50 p.m., the woman said. A police alert issued around 1 p.m. about a robbery in the area appears to corroborate the woman’s story.
