Two men attempted to steal a 34-year-old man’s car in a parking lot near the George Mason University campus on Thursday, June 24, according to Fairfax County Police press release. The victim was standing by his car at around 10:30 p.m. when a 2007 BMW M6 pulled up next to him. One of the two men exited the vehicle, pointed a handgun at the victim and demanded the keys to his 2007 Honda Civic. The victim complied with the suspect, who attempted to get away in the victim’s vehicle. Unable to drive away in the Civic, however, the suspect grabbed the victim’s cell phone, fled back into the BMW and the duo left the scene. The release says the event took place in the 10600 block of Braddock Road, which touches the southwest edge of campus and includes the University Mall Shopping Center.
