San Francisco Reporter Robbed

KTVU Reporter Claudine Wong was robbed. Not while she was covering a story, but while shopping at Costco.

Wong says she was pushing a shopping cart through the parking lot after shopping on Friday when a car pulled up beside her.

Suddenly someone leaned out of the passenger seat and grabbed her purse from atop the cart. The car, a dark Honda sedan with paper dealer plates, then sped away.

Wong wrote on Facebook that her purse contained her wallet and cellphone.

Police in the San Francisco Bay Area city of Concord are looking at surveillance video, which recorded images of the suspect car driving off.

Wong says she wasn’t hurt.

Here is her Facebook post about the incident.
