PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) -- Providence Police are investigating an armed robbery where the victims were targeted on Craigslist.
Two men from Massachusetts came to Providence to buy a Macbook that was advertised on Craigslist, and instead the victims were met by four armed men who robbed them of $1,000, their wallets, and cell phones.
Police say one suspect, 18-year-old Lateef Yusuf was arrested and charged with first degree robbery.
Three other suspects are still on the loose.
