Police said the woman, 84, was robbed in the parking lot of a Publix store at 2451 Cumberland Parkway on Tuesday morning, then got away in a 2005 Toyota Camry in the photo above.

The car has extensive damage on the rear-side passenger door and has dealer drive-out tags, according to police, who did not have a physical description of the male suspect.
