When officers arrived at the scene, they learned the victim had confronted several suspects in the process of stealing his vehicle, Bittner said. One of them, Bittner added, confronted the victim, making him fear for his safety.
Bittner said the suspects drove away in the victim’s vehicle, which was later found in a nearby neighborhood.
After obtaining several leads, officers turned the investigation over to the police department’s investigations bureau. Police did not announce any arrests in the case Wednesday
