An elderly woman was robbed in her Lancaster County home by a man who forced his way inside when she answered the door, according to police.

Susquehanna Regional police said the robber took money from the woman's pocket book Monday night, then fled the home along N. Waterford Avenue in Marietta.

He was armed with a knife, but did not use it or threaten the woman, police said.

The woman described the man as heavy set, about 5'10" tall, and wearing all black clothing and a hooded sweatshirt with the hood up and his face partially covered, police said.
