Burbank police today sought public help to find two men who carjacked a vehicle at gunpoint while impersonating police officers over the weekend.
The crime was reported about 1:50 a.m. Saturday in the 3000 block of North Naomi Street, said Burbank police Sgt. Emil Brimway.
“Officers arrived on scene and encountered two victims who were handcuffed,” Brimway said in a statement.
“During their investigation, officers learned the victims had been carjacked at gunpoint by two suspects impersonating police officers,” Brimway said. “The suspects were wearing shirts with the word ‘POLICE’ written on the front.”
The victims were not injured, Brimway said. The suspects were described as males with shaved heads. They were in a gray car. No other details were released.
Anyone with information on the case was urged to call police at 818-238-3210.
