Woodbridge resident Ashleigh Ours is facing charges after allegedly assaulting and attempting to rob a man of his wallet at the Capital One Bank on Commerce Street in Springfield earlier this week.
Officers from the department were called at around 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 13 to investigate a robbery at the bank.
Police say that a man advised officers that he was finishing a withdrawal from the ATM when he was approached by Ours and a second man. She allegedly began assaulting him and trying to grab his wallet and cash before both got into a Toyota RAV4 and fled.
The victim suffered minor injuries.
According to officials, officers were able to locate the vehicle, which was stolen out of Prince William County, at a nearby gas station. Ours was arrested after a brief foot chase, but the second man was able to get away.
Ours was charged with:
- Robbery with serious bodily injury;
- Malicious wounding;
- Possession of Schedule 1 or 2 drugs;
- Obstructing justice.
She is being held at the Fairfax County Adult Detention Center without bond.
The second suspect was described as being a Black man who is between 5-foot-11 and 6-foot-2. Detectives from the Criminal Investigations Division are now investigating.
