MIAMI — A Miami woman was arrested Monday, weeks after police said she and a couple other women robbed a man inside of her condominium overlooking Biscayne Bay.
According to an arrest report from the Miami Police Department, the robbery occurred the night of April 11 at the Paraiso Bayviews condos, located at 501 NE 31st St.
Police said the victim met Nicole Cano, 30, on Instagram and she invited him to her condo to “have drinks.”
According to the report, the victim got to the high-rise building shortly after 8 p.m. and was admiring the view from the balcony when two unknown women exited a bedroom.
Police said all three women demanded money from the victim and he immediately began shouting at them that he didn’t have any money on him.
According to the report, the victim tried leaving the condo, at which time a brief struggle ensued and the women told him he was “going to pay.”
Police said the victim’s gold chain was pulled from his neck during the struggle, but he was able to hold onto it, although a $300 gold cross pendant was taken before the victim was able to flee the condo and scream for help.
The victim later identified Cano to detectives in a photo lineup.
Cano was taken into custody Monday and agreed to provide detectives with a statement, according to the report.
Police said she admitted to initiating a meeting with the victim, but denied the other accusations against her.
Cano was arrested on charges of strongarm robbery and false imprisonment.
As of Monday afternoon, she was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. Online jail records listed her total bond as “to be set.”
