TOLEDO, Ohio — Two suspects, one armed with a gun, attempted to rob a man early Monday at the parking lot of the Jeep assembly complex in north Toledo.
According to Toledo police, shortly before 6 a.m. on Sept. 28, crews were called to the scene of the Jeep plant off Stickney. A 55-year-old man had reported that two suspects had attempted to rob him as he exited his vehicle in the gate 6 lot.
