A Claypool man reported being robbed in his vehicle while driving on Ind. 14 Saturday.

According to a Kosciusko County Sheriff's Department report, Robert L. Vickery, 60, East Calhoun Street, Claypool, flagged down KCSD Officer Matt Rapp near the intersection of CRs 700S and 200W.

Vickery reported to Rapp that at approximately 2 a.m. Saturday, he allegedly was westbound on Ind. 14 near CR 300E when a dark colored vehicle pulled up behind him with blue and clear lights flashing. Vickery said he believed it was a police vehicle and pulled his vehicle over to the side of the road.

One of the two people in the other vehicle allegedly walked up to Vickery's window and asked to see Vickery's driver's license. As Vickery pulled his wallet out, the unknown man allegedly grabbed Vickery's wallet and ran back to the other vehicle. The vehicle then made a U-turn on Ind. 14 and headed east.

Vickery returned to his residence and contacted his credit card company to report the cards stolen. Vickery said he was unable to identify the subject or anything else about the vehicle or its other occupant. [[In-content Ad]]
