On Sunday at approximately 5:30 p.m., Bristol Police received a call about a car stolen at gunpoint on Stafford Avenue. The victim, a 21 year old male, had posted his 2019 Dodge Charger for sale on Facebook Marketplace. At about 5:00, he met a prospective buyer at the Cumberland Farms in Forestville. The buyer told the victim he wanted to take the car for a test drive and the victim agreed.

There are two suspects in the robbery. The first got in the driver’s seat, and his accomplice sat in the back. The victim got in the front passenger seat. After a short time, the suspect in the back pointed a gun at the victim and told him to give up his key fob to the driver, which he did. The victim was able to get out of the vehicle, and the two suspects drove away.

The suspects arrived at the Cumberland Farms in a dark Infiniti driven by a third person. Suspect one, the driver, is described as a 6′ black male of thin build. He was wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans. The second suspect is described as a 5’5″ black male, also thin, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and blue jeans.

The stolen vehicle was last seen heading north on I-91 toward Massachusetts.
