(WWJ) Detroit Police are searching for a man and a woman wanted in a robbery on the city's west side.
According to investigators, the paid walked into a business in the 6400 block of Michigan Ave., near Livernois, at around 1 p.m. on Dec. 29, and asked to exchange a laptop computer.
When the exchange was denied, they asked to see a new laptop, and a store employee brought one out to show them.
The employee, a 47-year-old man, then put the new laptop back behind the counter, but the man reached over and grabbed it, police said.
