Myrtle Beach police arrested Paul Douglas Pittman and Brad Wilson for a purse snatching on Monday. Charges are pending against the two men.

Police say a woman was getting into her car at the Food Lion on South Kings Highway when Pittman opened her car door and took her purse.

They say he then ran to a black Honda that Wilson was driving. The woman tried to get her purse from inside the car when the suspects sped off, dragging the woman who fell and hit her head.

Investigators learned where the suspects were and arrested them.
