Pat White has suffered irreparable damage to her eye-socket after being punched in the face by the Black thief.

Forest Park Police have made an arrest in the robbery and aggravated assault of an elderly florist.

The incident happened on November 8.

Pat White, 73, was brutally beaten as well as robbed and investigators say when she tried to give the man what he wanted he beat her unconscious.

The owner of the Red n Gold Florist in Forest Park was working alone when a man walked in with a knife and demanded money. Mayor David Lockhart says White opened the cash register, but it wasn’t enough.

Juwanza Hoard has been arrested for the attack.

White has been a florist in Forest Park for decades and many, including the mayor, have fond memories of buying flowers from the shop.
