CHARLESTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A woman drove herself to the hospital after she says she was beaten around 11:40 p.m. Thursday night.

It happened as she was getting out of her car in the 3100 block of 4th Avenue in North Charleston.

The victim is 29 years old. She was only able to give a vague description of the man.

According to the report, the man beat her for about four or five minutes. In the process, he also went through her purse and stole nine bucks.

Police are still looking for the person responsible. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Charleston Police at (304) 348-6480.

Tired- you are on a HUNTINGTON-based news website. I suggest you go to Channel 8, 11, or 13 if you want Charleston. Sorry it wasn't obvious for you. You probably go to Herald-Dispatch for your Charleston news too.

People who rob and beat others don't care who they hurt or kill when they rob them. Sick way to make a living! A lot of the victims are injured severely, raped or die from what these thieves do to them. People should watch when they are out and report a crime if they see another person being attacked. They should lock these theives up in prison for a long time for robbing,and life for injuries or death to another person.
