Largo, FL (July 18, 2018) – The Largo Police Department was called to the scene of an accident when one woman was partially dragged, receiving serious injuries. The incident happened at a Walmart on Roosevelt Boulevard.
Police say that it took place when two women were committing a robbery. The women were identified as 36-year-old Tanesha Gary and 38-year-old Shanan Diaz, who were driving a blue Hyundai at the time. They were right next to the victim, who was identified as 53-year-old Crystal Dennington. She was riding on a motorized shopping cart at the time.
Gary took Dennington’s purse from her and then re-entered the vehicle to flee the scene. The Hyundai then fled and the victim was partially dragged and fell. She was seriously injured and taken to the hospital.
Currently, police are looking for both of them, as one of them has active felony warrants out.
