Police say a suspect is in custody in two Montgomery purse snatchings.

Officers say Latoria Jordan Muhammad faces 12 felony charges including theft, forgery and assault.

The purse snatchings happened last month and involved a 61-and a 71-year-old victim.

Police say Muhammad would follow the victims to their homes and then grab their purse.

One victim was hurt when she was dragged across asphalt when Muhammad allegedly drove away while she was still holding her purse.
