Falls Church Police are investigating an apparent armed robbery which occurred at an animal grooming business on Sunday, Sept. 11, about 10:30 a.m.
An employee of Dogspaw, 105. N. Virginia Ave., was inside the business grooming a dog when she felt a cold, metallic object on the back of her neck. She stated she heard a male voice state “where’s the money?” She replied there was no money. The suspect took a laptop computer and purse and fled. The victim did not see the man’s face. Falls Church Police responded immediately and were later assisted in their search by two trained K9s.
