A Redwood City woman fell victim to a street scam on Madrone Street Thursday morning, where a thief stole her gold necklace. The incident occurred when a woman, described as Middle Eastern, approached the victim under the guise of asking for directions. During the interaction, the suspect placed a medallion around the victim’s neck, claiming to bless her. This act was a distraction as the suspect also removed two chains from the victim, taking one before fleeing the scene.
Insight:
Street scams like the one experienced by the Redwood City woman are common tactics used by thieves to distract and steal from unsuspecting victims. It is crucial for individuals to be aware of their surroundings and exercise caution when approached by strangers, especially in unfamiliar or isolated areas. Being alert and skeptical of unusual or overly friendly behavior can help prevent falling victim to such schemes.
