The victim/owner told the officers that she last saw her white 1990 Honda Accord (MD tags 6EZM37) legally parked outside of her residence in the Kaywood Apartments at about 1 am this morning. When she returned for her cat at about 10 am she discovered that it had been stolen. Communications personnel confirmed that the car had not been impounded or repossessed.

4200 block of Kaywood Drive: At about 12:40 am officers responded for the report of a citizen armed robbery. The victims (2) told the officers that three black males, approximately 18-20 years of age got out of a dark colored Dodge Caravan (unknown tags) and approached them. One of the men displayed a small dark colored hand gun, possibly a revolver, and robbed both victims of their valuables. The three suspects then fled the area in the Caravan towards Eastern Avenue.
