For the second time in as many days, a woman was carjacked in Winnipeg.

Winnipeg police said officers were called to the 500 block of William Avenue on Oct. 27 around 9:15 p.m.

Officers learned a 34-year-old woman was leaving church when three people—two men and a woman—approached her.

The woman did not need medical treatment, police said.

The major crimes unit is now searching for the three suspects.

The woman is described as Indigenous, around five-foot-five, with a skinny build, and was wearing a red hoodie with a grey jacket and grey pants. Police also said she has a small tattoo near her right eye.

The last person is also believed to be an Indigenous man, around five-foot-six, and was wearing a grey hoodie or jacket.

If anyone has information on any of these people, they are asked to call police or Crime Stoppers.
