2:04 p.m. A 72-year-old woman said she left her car parked in front of the library and left the passenger door open while she returned a bunch of books.

There was a man on the bench next to the front door, and next to him, a bike.

When she came back to her car, the man and the bike were gone, and so was the leather purse she left in her vehicle.

There was $20 inside.
