A man was robbed of personal property by two suspects in the West End just off King Street on Monday morning, according to the Alexandria Police Department.

The incident occurred in an underground parking garage in the 4500 block of Ford Avenue, a little more than a week after an automobile was reported stolen from that same garage, according to the city’s crime database.

APD reported on Twitter that it responded to a carjacking call for service and that two suspects robbed the victim of personal items and fled the scene. One suspect brandished a weapon, but just what kind was not released by police. The incident remains under investigation, according to APD.

Anyone with information on this incident can contact the APD non-emergency number at 703-746-4444. Callers can remain anonymous.
