Baltimore police say robbers have been preying on Craigslist users looking to buy coins, jewelry and dirt bikes.
Police
spokesman Anthony Guglielmi says investigators have linked four cases
dating back to August. He says robbers posing as a seller lured would-be
buyers to the same spot in northwest Baltimore, the 3500 block of
Callaway Avenue, displayed a gun and stole up to $2,700 in cash from
them.
In one case in November, Guglielmi says a robber fired a
gun during a struggle with the victim, who was hoping to buy coins. The
victim was not injured.
