Two unidentified suspects are wanted in connection with a strong-arm robbery, Atlanta police said.

The robbery took place on May 20 when Emre Uz went to 443 Moreland Avenue to purchase an iPad from a person he negotiated with on the LetGo app, police said in a news release.

Uz handed money to the suspects and was walking away with the iPad when he realized the model wasn’t the model advertised for sale, the release said.

When he confronted the two suspects, he was physically assaulted and sustained a broken arm, police said.

The suspects fled the location with the iPad and $130, the release said.
