Saskatoon police are searching for two men after a woman was pulled out of her vehicle, beaten and robbed.
It happened early Monday morning in an alley behind the 1600 block of Idylwyld Dr. N.
The woman, 47, said she had just gotten into her vehicle when a man grabbed her, pulled her out and started punching her. He stole her purse and fled with another male, who had not participated in the assault.
Around 2:30 a.m. CST, she went to a nearby gas station and police were called.
The woman received injuries that are believed to be minor, police said.
The first suspect is described as a Caucasian male in his late 20s, five feet, six inches tall, with a small build and light-coloured eyes. He was wearing a dark grey jacket, dark pants, a dark coloured toque and gloves and round, wire-frame glasses.
The second suspect is described as a Caucasian male, taller than the other man, wearing a dark toque and dark clothing.
