Anne Arundel County Police are once again asking the public to come forward with any information about an early morning carjacking at the Horizon Square Apartments in the 3500 Block of Laurel-Fort Meade Road. The incident took place this morning around 2 AM.
Police say that the victim was exiting his car when he was approached by two suspects dressed in all-black clothing. According to the police report, "one suspect placed a gun to the victim’s head and requested his phone and banking information. The victim was struck in the back of his head by one of the suspects and told to get on the ground." The suspect eventually took the victim's car while the other suspect fled in a different vehicle.
This is the second carjacking to take place in the commercial district in recent weeks. A woman was also robbed at the Navy Federal Credit Union ATM in Maryland City Plaza.
Anne Arundel County Police canvassed Corridor Marketplace and Maryland City Plaza last Friday to speak with residents and share tips about personal safety. Police are planning more patrols for the area to help address growing concerns.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact detectives at 410-222-6155.
