A report of a robbery early Thursday morning on River Road in Anson was unfounded, according to the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office.
The 17-year-old girl who made the report around 1:20 a.m. needed a ride after having been kicked out of the place where she was staying, said Chief Deputy James Ross of the sheriff’s office.
She told police that a man on foot had tried to grab her pocketbook but was unsuccessful, but Ross said the sheriff’s office determined that didn’t happen.
It is unlikely there will be charges in the case, Ross said.
