OCEAN CITY – Ocean City police are investigating an alleged carjacking in downtown Ocean City early Friday morning.
Police were alerted initially to a possible shooting, but it’s believed a victim – who was in Ocean City fishing from Brandywine, Md. -- was not shot after investigation. The man was struck in the head, causing bleeding, by a suspect attempting to steal his vehicle. According to the victim’s reports to police, at least three black males threatened him with a gun and stole his vehicle. Police at one point requested stop sticks at the Route 50 Bridge to stop as many as three vehicles involved -- at least one stolen vehicle and two others.
According to initial scanner reports, a black SUV was stopped in West Ocean City with one suspect apprehended while a silver 4Runner headed west on Route 50. Another vehicle, which may have also been stolen, was stopped in Wicomico County. Three juveniles were later apprehended in Cambridge after a vehicle involved crashed there. A handgun was reportedly found in the vehicle.
Full story with more details will be coming.
Typically I see OC as safe, especially in the off season but times are changing.
