REDMOND, WA - Yesterday evening, at about 9:19 p.m., a woman
reported she had just been robbed of her vehicle and personal possessions at
knifepoint at Redmond Transit Center on the 16100 block of NE 83rd St.
Redmond Police are searching for three suspects involved in
the carjacking. One suspect threatened the victim with a knife.
He is described as a black male with a bald head, wearing a
dark-colored, hooded sweatshirt and dark-colored jeans. (See sketch below.)
The male suspect was accompanied by two black females, one
of whom had braided hair and was wearing a tight, long-sleeved, white T-shirt and blue
jeans.
The trio approached the victim in the parking lot of the Target
shopping center and initially asked her for money. When the victim refused, the
suspects asked for a ride to the transit center and she allowed them to
get into her vehicle.
Once they arrived at the transit center, the male suspect
pulled out a knife, told the victim to get out of the vehicle, and threatened
to stab her. The victim jumped out of the car and did not sustain any physical
injuries.
The victim’s vehicle was described as a black 2003 Kia
Sorrento with gray driver’s side door and gray passenger side quarter panel.
The vehicle has Washington state license plates with the number ABY8043.
Redmond Police request assistance in locating the three
suspects and the stolen vehicle. To provide information on this incident please
