A NSW teenager will face court this morning following the alleged robbery of an elderly woman in Holt on April 7.

The 88-year-old woman was walking into a unit complex on Hardwick Crescent, Holt when a male knocked her to the ground and took her handbag from the walking frame she had been using. The woman suffered minor injuries.

With the assistance of NSW Police, Belconnen Patrol and Criminal Investigation Team members executed a search warrant on a residence in Narromine, NSW and seized a number of items.

The alleged offender was arrested and bailed to appear in the ACT Magistrates Court this morning.
