ARLINGTON, Va. — Arlington County police officers are trying to track down two suspects they say lied to an elderly woman and stole from her home.

“Someone came to the door and beat on it,” the victim tells 草莓传媒.
She does not want to be identified and would only speak through the mail slot.
“They said the wires are all loose, it was very believable,” she explains.
The two men eventually ran off with several valuable items from her home.
“Those son of a (expletive) were just awful,” says the victim. “If I could get my hands on them I would shred them.”
