Armed RobberyAs part of a continuing investigation, the Maryland State Police are asking for the public’s help with information regarding the kidnapping and armed robbery of a delivery man in Fallston on Tuesday.

The four suspects are described as African-American males wearing dark clothing and ski masks. They were driving a black Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck at the time of the alleged kidnapping and robbery.

Shortly before 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, the delivery driver was preparing to deliver tobacco products to a liquor store in the 2300 block of Belair Road in Fallston. As he pulled into the parking lot of the store, three men with masks approached him.

The victim told police that one of the suspects pointed a gun at him and ordered him into the back of the delivery truck. The suspects then drove the delivery truck to a side street, behind buildings on Old Mountain Road Central, a few miles south of the liquor store.
