COLUMBIA (WACH)--The Richland County Sheriff's Department is looking for two robbery suspects.

It happened around 9:30 Friday evening at the Walmart shopping center on 10060 Two Notch Road. 

According to deputies two men who were driving either a grey or white Nissan or Hyundai Elantra pulled up to a 62-year-old woman and asked her for directions to Farrow Road. 

When she responded, deputies say that one of the men sprayed her with mace and took off with her purse.

The victim was transported to Baptist Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

If you have any information that could help police locate the suspects call CrimeStoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
