Vehicle Robbery Investigation – C15-265717
On December 18, 2015, shortly before 7:00 a.m., members of the Winnipeg Police Service were dispatched to the 500 block of Home Street for the report of a vehicle robbery.
Officers met with the victim who advised that he had been travelling northbound on Home Street when a southbound vehicle blocked his way. Two occupants exited and then proceeded to assault the victim about the upper body. He was eventually able to break free and flee on foot. Both suspects drove off, one in the vehicle they arrived in, the other in the victim's vehicle.
It is believed that one of these suspects may be responsible for a person robbery that occurred near Portage Avenue and Burnell Street a short time later. In that incident the suspect attempted to rob the victim of her purse but was unsuccessful as a bystander intervened.
The suspect vehicle described as: dark coloured SUV or van.
The suspect who made off with the victim's vehicle is described as: Aboriginal in appearance, 5'5" tall with a medium build, medium length black hair and a light moustache.
The second suspect is described as: Aboriginal in appearance, early twenties, approximately 5'8" tall with a skinny build, black medium length hair and was clean shaven.
The investigation is continuing by members of the Division 11 Crime Unit. Anyone with information regarding this incident or the identity of the suspect(s) is asked to contact investigators at (204) 986-6668 or CrimeStoppers at (204) 786-TIPS (8477).
