UPDATE: DAYTON--A woman and her dog were punched during a robbery on Wednesday.
Mykah Johnson and her dog Bella were in her red pick up truck, driving on North Main Street, and
when she turned onto Laura Avenue, two men approached her truck.
Johnson said the men reached in her windows, grabbing for her money and purse on her seat.
"As I tried to pull my purse away, he hit me in my face, and my dog tried to bite him, and he hit her."
Johnson said she just came from the bank and the men stole all the cash she had.
She said one of her attackers had a very distinctive tattoo
"It was on the left side of his neck. It was Nitty , Ditty, or Kitty, but i-t-t-y were the last 4 letters, tattooed on his neck.
And he's covered in tattoos. He's a real dark skinned black guy, covered in tattoos."
