Three have been arrested in Patissia, near central Athens, on suspicion of mugging elderly women in the area.
Police revealed on Saturday that the arrest occurred a few days earlier when the men tried to rob a 73-year-old woman as she entered her apartment block.
According to officers, the trio followed elderly women who had withdrawn money from ATMs and mugged them before they reached their homes.
They are suspected of carrying out seven such attacks.
