A father of four has been identified as the man killed in a robbery at a College Park gas station Friday.

Channel 2 Action News reported that family members of Torrez Rice identified him as the man who was robbed and gunned down at the gas station. Rice had just purchased a new car when he stopped at the gas station, according to Channel 2 reports.

Police have yet to release the identity of the victim. Witnesses told police the man and a passenger had pulled up to a set of pumps at the Exxon gas station on Roosevelt Highway when they were approached by two men. Rice’s family told Channel 2 the passenger was able to escape but the men shot and killed Rice. The two unknown assailants are wanted on charges of robbery and homicide, police said.

Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
