TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Police Department (TPD) is investigating an armed carjacking that happened at a local gas station Sunday morning.

At approximately 11:03 a.m., TPD was called to the Shell Gas Station located at 5100 Adamo Drive about an armed carjacking.

Suspects armed with firearms stole the victim's 2016 Hyundai, according to authorities. However, the victim was not injured.

Police located the vehicle over an hour later at the 1900 block of East Fletcher Avenue.

Three suspects fled from the vehicle on foot but were immediately apprehended at the Bahia Apartments located at 2902 Sycamore Court.

A South Tampa man turned to Susan Solves It after he said ADT told him he had to keep paying for a security system at his Hurricane Helene-damaged home, even though the system was so new that he never had a day of service.
