A seemingly innocent meetup to facilitate the sale of some rare coins turned violent over the weekend, resulting in a shooting and one arrest, according to a report by Fox News:
Arlington police arrested a man after they say an attempt to sell rare coins turned into a theft and a shooting.
“23-year-old Edgar Ipina called the police around 6:35 p.m. on Saturday to report that he’d been robbed and that he’d shot at the suspect.
“Ipina told officers that he was selling rare coins on an online marketplace and agreed to meet with a potential buyer in a parking lot near the Parks Mall.
“When he showed the prospective buyer the coins, the man grabbed them and started to run away.
“Ipina said he pulled out a gun and shot at the man multiple times, but he got into a car and drove away.”
