Crimes Nearby: Date Turns into Robbery, Student Followed

Here are the latest arrests and incidents in neighborhoods surrounding Babylon Village.

A Lindenhurst man took a woman out for dinner and gave her a box of chocolates during a date Monday night – what he got in return, though, from the woman wasn't nearly as sweet. 

Police say Virginia Miller, 26, of Amityville, helped set up the robbery of the Lindenhurst man, whom police did not identify, in the driveway of a North Amityville home.

Police say the night began when Miller made arrangements to go on a date with the Lindenhurst man to celebrate her birthday. After the man treated Miller to dinner at a local fast food restaurant and gave her the chocolates, they returned to a residence at 44 Nathalie Ave. in North Amityville, police said. 

Miller and three men are now under arrest.
