WASHINGTON — A man told police that he was carjacked by a group of men wearing all-black and ski masks on northbound Interstate 495 Sunday evening, Maryland State Police said.
Troopers were dispatched to the area of northbound I-495 near Exit 3B and found the victim standing on the right shoulder of the highway.
The man told officers that he was driving about 15 mph on the beltway while trying to take Exit 3B when a black man wearing all-black stepped out onto the road prompting him to stop his car.
