A limousine driver and an accomplice allegedly abducted and robbed a 26-year-old Manassas man on June 21, Fairfax County police said.

The victim was lost in Washington, D.C., at around 3:30 a.m. when he saw a limousine at a gas station. The man asked the driver for a ride to Vienna and offered to pay. The driver obliged and after a short ride, stopped to pick up another man, police said.

As the driver passed over Interstate 66 on Nutley Street, the second passenger allegedly pulled out a gun and demanded money from the victim, police said.

The suspects drove the victim to an ATM and allegedly ordered him to withdraw money and return to the car. The victim complied and handed over his money, police said.

The suspects continued driving and the victim attempted to get out of the car. The doors were locked but the suspect who was driving eventually stopped the car and the victim escaped. The victim was not injured, police said.

Both suspects were described as black. The driver was between 38 and 45 years old, about 6 feet tall and 250 pounds. He had a long beard only on his chin and wore glasses, a light-colored sweater and light-colored pants.

The second suspect was between 24 and 28 years old, about 6 feet 1 inch tall and 150 pounds, wearing a blue shirt and dark blue jeans.
