Wenatchee Police Searching for Robbery Victim

The Wenatchee Police Department is attempting to track down a victim of a robbery.

According to a post on the department's Facebook page, officers encountered and arrested 52-year-old Larry Maugh of Kennewick around 1:30 pm Thursday for an assault that occurred earlier in the day. As this was happening, a passerby approached the officers and stated he saw the same man attempting to take a backpack from a teenage young man.

After taking Maugh into custody, officers realized the victim of the possible robbery had left westbound on Fifth Street from Wenatchee Avenue. Wenatchee PD is asking the potential victim to call Rivercom to make a report.
