Third Kidnapping And Robbery, Atlanta Police Release Sketch

ATLANTA, GA — Sandy Spring police are now joining in on the search for a suspect that Atlanta police said kidnapped and robbed two different women last month.

The first two incidents happened in Atlanta and now the Sandy Springs police department says a very similar incident happened October 9 just after 6 p.m. on Roswell Road near Mt. Paran Road, reported WSB.

Just like the first two times, police said a man got into the back seat of a woman’s car while she was inside. Police said they believe the man is the same suspect.

The man made the victims withdraw cash from several ATMs before fleeing. In both instances, he had the women drop him off in the Atlantic Station area.

According to police, the suspect was able to open the car door and make his demands. Neither victim was hurt.

According to one of the victims, she had just left a hair salon on Piedmont Road, got into her vehicle when a man got in on the passenger side. The victim told police the man became emotional and said he had recently lost his job and needed money to feed his son. He took $700 before having her drop him off at a nearby gas station.

Police are asking anyone who recognizes the man in the photo or has information about the robberies to contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-8477. They can remain anonymous and be eligible for a $2,000 reward.
