Police: Pregnant woman looking for drugs carjacked at gunpoint
DAYTON - Police are looking for two men who carjacked a pregnant woman and two other occupants who came from out of town Thursday looking to score drugs, according to a police report.
The 19-year-old woman said she was in the 3500 block of Stafford Place about 7 p.m. when two men got into her 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix for what was supposed to be a drug deal, the report stated.
The female driver, who is sixth months pregnant and from Hamilton, said she was driving a 17-year-old teenager from Cincinnati so he could buy drugs, the report stated.
She said the 17-year-old “likely” knew the two robbers. The three victims, all teenagers, fled to a nearby house, and the homeowner called police, the report stated.
The 17-year-old teen from Cincinnati who allegedly knew the robbers slipped out a back door of the house before police arrived and could not be interviewed, the report stated.
No one was seriously harmed during the incident.
Lead homicide detective Sgt. Gary White has issued many warnings to the public that anyone coming from out of town to buy drugs in Dayton is putting their life in serious jeopardy.
Police urge anyone with information to call 333-COPS.
