30 Nov Woman robbed in P2

The police reported that on Saturday morning, a woman was walking around Pioneer Square at 12:15 am with a wad of cash in her hand. Can you guess what happened next? (If you’re about to say that she was trying to buy a kilt, you would be wrong.) She was approached by five – six male ‘suspects’ and robbed.

Anyways, although I’m definitely not saying that it was her fault (it was obviously the fault of the people who decided to rob her), sometimes you really need to think about not providing temptation to potential wrongdoers.

Here is the actual SPD report:

On November 28th at approximately 12:15 a.m. the female victim contacted officers on foot patrol near Occidental Avenue South and South Washington Street. She stated that a few minutes prior, five to six male suspects approached her and her friend and greeted them (the victim was holding cash in her hand).

The suspect who had greeted them suddenly pushed the victim back, grabbed her upper chest area and knocked the money out of her hand. The suspect then picked up the money and fled the scene on foot. The victim sustained minor abrasions. Officers conducted an extensive area search however, the suspect remains at large.

If you have any information about this robbery, please contact the police.
