Armed men intercept, escape with $2.8M car along Leopold Street

Two armed men have relieved a 46-year-old man of his Toyota Fielder wagon, PZZ 7156, and other personal items after intercepting him along Leopold Street, Georgetown.
The incident was reportedly committed at about 1:10h on Thursday, and one of the two suspects was armed with a handgun while the other had a knife.
The Police have said that the victim was driving along Leopold Street, Georgetown when he observed a Mazda motorcar parked in the middle of the roadway to obstruct him from proceeding on his journey.
As his vehicle came to a stop, two men reportedly exited the back passengers’ seat of the Mazda car and walked up to him. The perpetrator with the gun pointed the weapon to his head and ordered him out of his vehicle, while the perpetrator with the knife searched his pockets and confiscated one iPhone 7.
The victim was also relieved of a silver chain and a silver band that he was wearing at the time.
The two suspects then boarded their victim’s car, and the Mazda motorcar made way for that car to pass. The victim was left standing on the roadway as the men drove off with his car.
A report was subsequently made at the Brickdam Police Station, and an investigation is underway.
