A 17-year-old boy was arrested Thursday morning for the mugging of a 99-year-old woman in Windsor, Connecticut.

The woman was reportedly delivering cookies to the L.P. Wilson Community Center on Wednesday at 9 a.m. when she was attacked.

The woman suffered minor injuries.

“It was disappointing to see right before the holidays,” Sgt. Christopher McKee of the Windsor Police Department said.

“There’s laws and statutes that protect that segment of our population. I know a lot of folks were very upset about it when they heard what the offense was that had occurred.”

The 17-year-old was arrested on charges of third-degree robbery, sixth-degree larceny, and assault of the elderly. He will be taken to Juvenile Detention Hartford to await an appearance at Superior Court, Juvenile Matters in Hartford.

His identity was not released.
