A Texas woman is recovering after being robbed while unloading groceries in her own driveway. KABB Fox 29 reported that a suspect violently stole her purse from her.

Houston Police said that a surveillance camera captured the whole incident. The video shows the woman being dragged to the ground and across her front lawn while holding on to her purse. The woman had about $1,000 inside the purse that she had just withdrawn from an ATM.

According to the woman's son, it seems that the suspect may have followed the woman home after her visit to the ATM, which is a crime more commonly known as "jugging."

The video shows the suspect parking in the middle of the street, running out, and grabbing the purse from the 59-year-old woman.

The woman's son told KTRK, "Her initial reaction was to try to fight the perpetrator and try t hold on to that bag."

Check out the video of the incident below:

The woman's son said, "It's really disappointing. Really scary."

The suspect has not yet been caught.
