Takoma Park police are investigating the latest armed carjacking to take place at a Montgomery County gas station. Late yesterday morning at 11:44 AM, Takoma Park police were called to a gas station in the 6400 block of New Hampshire Avenue after a male victim reported his vehicle had been taken at gunpoint.
The victim told police that he left his BMW X6 locked but with the motor running outside while going into the station's convenience store. He saw a black Dodge Charger enter the gas station and park nearby. When the victim emerged from the store, he found a 6'3" black man wearing black clothing and a black ski mask attempting to open the door of the X6. The victim apparently attempted to run away, but was chased by the suspect, who pointed a handgun at him and demanded his key fob and wallet. He complied, and the suspect fled in the X6 south on New Hampshire, followed closely by the Dodge Charger.
Anyone with information on this incident should contact the Takoma Park Police Department at 301-270-1100 and refer to case #230001695.
