Good samaritan robbed at knifepoint, suspects on the run

Knoxville police are searching for a male and female wanted in connection with an armed robbery.

Authorities said a woman flagged down a driver at 4400 Asheville Highway near Chilhowee Park around midnight Saturday.

She was standing next to an older model, white, Chevy Lumina with the hood up and said she was having car trouble.

Police said the victim went to look under the hood when a man appeared with a knife. The male demanded the victim's wallet and took his cash.

The suspects then left the scene in the white car.
