The incident took place in New Haven County at 3 Maple St., in Milford.

According to Milford detectives, upon returning from a test drive of the victim’s 2004 white Volvo S-80, the "supposed" interested buyer forced the victim out of the car at gunpoint and fled towards Cherry Street.

The suspect is described as a tall, skinny, clean-cut, dark-skinned Black male in his early 20's, who displayed a black semi-auto pistol, police said.

The vehicle has a large dent in the rear end/trunk.

Detectives are asking anyone who spots the car to call 911 immediately, but don't approach the occupants as they are armed.
