Decatur police are looking for a man they say tried to steal a woman’s car earlier this month.
He approached the woman after she pulled over due to car trouble on Derrydown Way on Jan. 4, Channel 2 Action News reported. He asked if he could use her phone, but when she said it was dead, he allegedly pointed a black handgun at her and demanded she get out of the car.
He wasn’t able to start the vehicle, though. He got out and ran away, possibly toward the Avondale MARTA station, police said.
He is believed to be 6 feet tall and in his mid-teens to early 20s; investigators released a sketch of what he looks like.
Anyone with information about him or the incident is asked to contact Decatur police at 678-553-6628 or anonymously reach out to Crime Stoppers at 404-577-Tips (8477).
