The (Not So Great) Train Robbery Reported at Kirkwood Station

The theft occurred somewhere aboard Amtrak, but Kirkwood police got the call.

 

Direct from the Kirkwood Police Department police blotter:

On Monday, June 25, at 12:56 p.m. officers were called to a eastbound Amtrak train stopped at the Kirkwood Train Station.

The conductor told police an adult passenger reported a purse containing cash, credit cards, and an iPad stolen while the train was in transit. An investigation aboard the train by officers revealed another adult passenger stole the purse. The purse was recovered.

The adult suspect was arrested and removed from the train. The suspect was also found in possession of another passenger’s property at the time of arrest.  The case was referred to the St Louis County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for review.

Warrants were issued on Janie Dibbon, 18, from Kansas City, MO, for one felony count of receiving stolen property, one misdemeanor count of receiving stolen property, and one misdemeanor count of possession of drug paraphernalia. She was transferred to the St Louis County Jail and held on $10,000 bond.
