Car Hijacked on Stenton Avenue

A man had his vehicle stolen from him at gunpoint in the 7400 block of Stenton Avenue on Sept. 23, police said.

The man ran into a deli on that block at around 8:55 p.m., and when he came back outside there was a different man sitting in the driver’s seat of his vehicle, police said.

The owner of the vehicle told the man to get out, and then the man inside the vehicle told the owner that he was selling cell phones, police said.

The owner once again asked the other man to exit his vehicle when the man inside the vehicle then pulled a black handgun from his jacket pocket, police said.

The owner of the vehicle ran away, and the man with the gun drove off with the owner’s vehicle, police said.
