Armed robbery in Takoma Park


Takoma Park police are investigating an armed robbery that was reported early yesterday morning, March 1, 2022. The robbery was reported in the 900 block of Merrimac Drive at 5:40 AM. When the male victim stopped his vehicle on Merrimac after turning from Lockney Avenue to fix his windshield, a light blue Volkswagen pulled up next to him.

Three black males emerged from the Volkswagen, each holding an object. Because one of the objects was a flashlight pointed directly at him, the victim could not determine what the other objects being held were. The victim was struck by one of the men, and property was taken from him. All three assailants got back in the Volkswagen and fled on Carroll Avenue towards Flower Avenue.

Investigators are asking that anyone with information about this incident, or knows the identities of the suspects driving a light blue Volkswagen, please contact the Takoma Park Police Department at 301-270-1100 and refer to case #220008758.
