Police are searching for the man who stole a woman's purse in one of the most unusual cases of purse-snatching ever.

It happened in a Walmart in Roxboro in Person County. You can see in the surveillance picture the suspect holding a purse as he's walking out of the Walmart. Police say the man stole the purse from a 76-year-old woman who had passed out in her scooter in an aisle of the store. She suffers from diabetes.

Surveillance cameras caught the man looking around before he stole the purse and left the store.
