Saint Paul Police are investigating several theft reports where a woman took gold necklaces from children after the woman appeared to have befriended them and their parents. The incidents occurred at two area markets: Hmong Village, 1001 Johnson Parkway, and Hmong Market, 217 Como Avenue.
In several incidents the woman approached families with children and began a friendly conversation before offering to introduce the children to her own. Parents believed this offer to be true and allowed their children to walk away with the woman. She used that opportunity to take the children’s gold necklaces, and then left the area. There have been no reports that any children have been harmed.
Witnesses described the suspect as an Asian woman in her twenties who appears to be pregnant. She was seen driving a Toyota minivan with Wisconsin license plates. Anyone who has information about this case or similar incidents is asked to call 651-291-1111.
