Suspect Demanded Cash after Claiming Victim Hit Him with His Car
Two men are wanted for taking money from a man after one of the suspects accused the victim of hitting him with his car.
On February 22 at 5:50 p.m., a 78-year-old man was backing his 2001 Toyota Camry out of a parking space at North Shore Farms, located at 2820 Jerusalem Avenue, when he was approached by two men. One of the subjects intentionally punched the victim’s car claiming the victim just struck him with his vehicle. Both subjects then began yelling, threatening and demanding money from the victim. The victim resentfully handed over approximately $600 to the two men. They then grabbed the money and fled the scene westbound on Jerusalem Avenue in a white Maserati.
The first subject is described as a white male between 30-40 years of age, six feet tall and weighing approximately 220 pounds, with a black beard and mustache. He was last seen wearing a green hooded sweatshirt with white and red stripes, grey pants and brown shoes.
The second subject is described as a white male, approximately 30 years of age, six feet tall weighing approximately 220 pounds, with a brown beard and mustache. He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a grey hooded sweatshirt with a blue t-shirt over the sweatshirt and a grey knit hat.
