Officers responded to the Motel 6 on Raynor Avenue in Linthicum at around 11:20 p.m. on Nov. 20 for a reported citizen robbery.
According to investigators, a 44-year-old man was approached by three suspects who demanded cash, with one of them deliberately bumping into the victim before rifling through his pockets and stealing money.
Police say that the suspects then got into a vehicle to flee the scene, though the victim was not done fighting.
The victim attempted to retrieve his stolen belongings by reaching into the driver’s side window as the car began to drive away, and he was dragged a short distance before becoming detached from the vehicle.
He suffered minor injuries and was transported by paramedics to an area hospital for treatment.
The Anne Arundel County Police Department is now searching for the three suspects:
- A tall, thin male in his 20s or 30s, wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt;
- A short, thin male with a goatee, wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt;
- A short, heavyset female.
Anyone with information is asked to contact detectives at 410-222-6135. Anonymous tips can also be submitted through the Anne Arundel County Police Tip Line at 410-222-4700.
