A thief who covets iPads has held up three people this month after arranging to meet them in Dunwoody.
Dunwoody Police say the suspect contacted the victims after they posted an iPad for sale on Craigslist. He arranged to meet them at the Walmart parking lot at 4725 Ashford Dunwoody Road.
Upon arrival, the man brandished a handgun and snatched the iPad, running away with it on foot. Two robberies occurred the afternoon of March 19 and the third happened at 7:45 p.m. March 22.
Police say the robberies are similar and may involve the same person. The victims described the robber as a black male of medium complexion in his 20s, between 5 feet 10 inches and 6 feet tall and between 150 and 180 pounds. Victim also said the man had a short haircut and had his right hand taped up "like a fighter."
Anyone with information is asked to contact Sgt. G. Cortellino at 678-382-6908 or gary.cortellino@dunwoodyga.gov.
