Elderly Charlestown man doesn't take robbery attempt lying down

Boston Police report arresting an Everett woman on charges she tried to rob an 87-year-old man - whom police found chasing after her even though she allegedly pushed him into a brick wall on Main Street around 8:30 a.m. on Tuesday.

Lisa Wallace, 39, was charged with assault with intent to rob, assault and battery with a dangerous weapon (the brick wall) on a victim over 60 and resisting arrest.

Police say Wallace came up behind the man and put her hand in his pocket and, when he resisted, pushed him into the wall.

Innocent, etc.
