Two robbed trying to complete Facebook Marketplace car sale near North Star Mall
SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) — Two people were robbed while trying to complete a Facebook Marketplace sale near North Star Mall Saturday night.
San Antonio police say two people had been in contact with a prospective seller for a car listed on the social media platform.
They agreed to with that prospective seller and met up in the 7400 block of San Pedro — right near Loop 410.
The buyers met with their contact — two people — at that location just before 9 p.m.
One of the buyers noticed one of the supposed sellers was wearing a mask. That man then walked up to where the buyers and the other supposed seller was, pulled out a handgun and told the buyers to get on their knees — robbing them.
The two suspects left the area.
Police were called and searched the area, but couldn’t find the robbers.
The investigation continues.
