Washington DC police have issued a warning about armed robbers targeting and stealing thousands of dollars worth of winter coats in broad daylight.
In the span of 48 hours, multiple residents were robbed of their Canada Goose and Moncler jackets at gunpoint.
Police said that three to four masked thieves wearing dark clothing approached the victims and demanded their jackets as well as other items before making off with them in a car.
In Georgetown, a woman whose outerwear was nearly stolen said she was walking home when a group of girls noticed her Canada Goose jacket and attempted to steal the expensive item.
‘I just heard, “Ooh, she’s got a Goose,” and I thought maybe it was a compliment, and then I felt a hand on my arm and I was like, “Oh, they actually want to take it off me”, she said.
‘At that point, I threw my coffee cup to the side just to distract them; specifically, I did not want to hurt anyone, but I just wanted them to be like, “Oh, what was that?” And it worked, and then I ran really fast, and I’ve not run like that in a while,’ the woman explained.
Anyone who buys and wears such stupidly expensive coats deserves to be ripped off. They signed up for it when they decided to be stupid enough to buy that nonsense.
Since in DC you cannot protect yourself from scum, a cup of hot joe in the face would work for me…fjb f air tags..range practice quick draw should be the advice since courts….are NOT DOING THERE JOBS!!!
