A Facebook Marketplace deal goes wrong at a Starbucks parking lot in Gambrills.
Anne Arundel County Police say two people arranged to sell a coat to an online buyer outside the coffee shop on Brandermill Road.
When they got there Monday night, the victims were met by a masked man who allegedly pulled up his shirt with a handgun showing.
The victims surrendered the coat, at which point the suspect got into a light-colored Honda and fled the scene.
Officers searched the area but were unable to locate the suspect.
Police say meeting an online buyer or seller is common, but can also be dangerous or lead to a scam.
