Valley City (CSi)  The Valley City Police Department received a report from an individual who was in a white Buick LeSabre at about 2:40 p.m. Sunday saying the Buick had been rear-ended multiple times by a maroon vehicle, according to the news release. The reporting party pulled into the VCPD parking lot and requested to speak to an officer.

While an officer was talking to two individuals in the Buick, the maroon suspect vehicle drove by the police department. The vehicle was stopped at the intersection of 3rd Street and 2nd Avenue North East.

After further investigation, it was determined the passenger in the vehicle was a victim of an alleged robbery. The evidence showed the victim agreed to purchase an Xbox game of a Valley City/Barnes County sell-trade-free page on Facebook, the news release said. The victim allegedly agreed to meet the seller of the Xbox game in the Elks’ parking lot in downtown Valley City.

The victim got into the white Buick thinking he was purchasing an Xbox game. The victim was allegedly attacked and forced to give the Buick’s occupants his money.

The suspects in the Buick sped off, while the victim chased after it. The news release said it is believed the vehicle allegedly rammed into the Buick multiple times while chasing the Buick.

A report was completed and sent to the Barnes County state’s attorney’s office. The VCPD also anticipates the male and female occupants of the Buick will be charged with robbery.

Valley City Police is still investigating the incident. If anyone has more information on this case, contact the VCPD at (701) 845-3110.
