COLUMBUS – Police are still looking for the two men who held a gun to the head of an eight-year-old girl in front of her parents in the parking lot of an East Side waterpark and stole the child’s hoverboard last November.
Shammaa Ammar and his wife told detectives they were walking in the parking lot of Fort Rapids waterpark, 4565 Hilton Corporation Drive, watching their daughter ride her hoverboard at approximately 9:50 p.m. on Nov. 26 when the suspects walked up to them, put a gun to the girl’s head and demanded the hoverboard.
They ran to a white PT cruiser and drove away Sgt. Shan Laird of the Robbery Unit said.
Security video from the park was released in an attempt to identify potential suspects but Laird says the two men in the video immediately came forward and were eliminated as suspects.
Any tips can be called in to the Columbus Police Robbery Unit at 614-645-4665 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers at 614-645-TIPS.
