Law enforcement report

¢ Lawrence Police are investigating a report that two people robbed and battered a female cab driver early Tuesday.

According to police, the cab driver picked up the couple – a male and female – around 3 a.m. in the 500 block of Fireside Drive. As the cab was leaving, the female passenger supposedly told the driver to turn around because she forgot something at the house.

When the cab got back to the house, the woman allegedly grabbed the driver, bit her and had the man hold her down while she snatched a bag full of money. Police are seeking a 30-year-old Lawrence woman as a person of interest.

¢ Lawrence Police were looking into claims that two women beat and robbed a 21-year-old Lawrence woman early Sunday outside Liquid Bar, 804 W. 24th St.
