According to information from the Vicksburg Police Department, a victim reported shortly after 5 a.m. Wednesday that a black male and black female approached him near Dairy Queen on Orme Drive asking for directions.

After the victim gave the directions, the male reportedly pulled a handgun and demanded the keys to the victim’s 2013 Chevrolet Silverado. The suspect then took the truck while the female followed in a separate vehicle.

The Mississippi Highway Patrol later recovered the stolen truck near Bolton on Interstate 20 East.
