Winnipeg police are investigating after a woman was robbed in a Transcona parking lot where she went for an online sales meet-up on the weekend. A 21-year-old woman told them she was there to sell headphones through an online classified forum, and she brought a 30-year-old friend with her. The woman left the vehicle to meet the prospective buyer, and the suspect grabbed the headphones, causing her to fall, she told police. Her friend tried to intervene, but the person punched him, police said. The woman then tried to pick up the headphones, but the person pulled a knife, grabbed them and ran, police said.
