Los Angeles Craigslist Becoming A Little More Creepy
Police said online sellers should be watch out for a Los Angeles Craigslist thief. He shops for goods and unsuspecting victims
Los Angeles police said he robbed a 17 year old boy for his Xbox 360 and 4 games.
The victim told police that the man responded to the ad on Los Angeles Craigslist and even offered to come and pick up the ipod at his home. When the boy declined and said he would meet the potential buyer, they set up a meeting. When he walked up to the car with his xbox 360 he was sprayed with mase and jumped by atleast 2 people
Police are sending a warning to online shoppers to be careful when meeting with potential buyers. Police said never allow the buyer come to your house or your neighborhood, instead, meet them in a public place.
“Today pepper spray, let’s say that doesn’t work one day, a gun may be next, a knife may be next, we don’t know,” said Sgt. Perez
