ALBANY, GA -- An early morning robbery Sunday has the Albany police looking for a yellow minivan with taxi on the side.

Officers say that Mario Beltran told them he flagged down a yellow taxi van to get a ride. The driver stopped and he got in. Once inside, the driver and his passenger drove him to 1001 Dunes and they took an unspecified amount of money.

Investigators are looking for two black males, the driver and other passenger, along with the yellow minivan.

Anyone with information regarding this case is encouraged to contact the Albany Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Bureau at (229) 431-3288. If you prefer to provide information anonymously, you may call "Crime Stoppers” by dialing (229) 436-TIPS.
