SAN ANTONIO-- Police are looking for a man who they say robbed a couple at gunpoint Tuesday afternoon.
Investigators said the couple thought the man was interested in buying their 2004 Nissan Murano SUV.
The victim told News 4 WOAI she posted an ad for the Murano on Craigslist, and a buyer was very interested in the vehicle.
The couple got in the car with the potential buyer and drove to an apartment near Rampart street. He told the couple he need to pick up the rest of the money for the Murano at his sister's house.
Instead, the victim said the man pulled out a gun and forced them out of the car. She said he threatened to kill them if they did not cooperate.
The man made off with the SUV, her purse and cell phone. "Just the way it unfolded it couldn't have been stopped, " said Matthew Porter with SAPD.
Officer Porter said when meeting an online buyer or seller it's a good idea to take someone with you, and meet in a busy place.
Anyone with information in this case is urged to call Crime Stoppers at 224-STOP.
Once caught the suspect will be charged with two counts of aggravated robbery.
