Florida man’s dating app match sets him up to be carjacked: police

A Florida man got more than he bargained for after his dating app match led to his car being stolen, police said.

The Titusville Police Department said that 24-year-old Brionna Eaddy and an unidentified 35-year-old Orlando man decided to meet in person on Sept. 24 at an apartment complex after communicating through the Tag Dating app.

According to an affidavit obtained by FOX 35 Orlando, the couple drove to a nearby park in the victim’s 2013 Mazda CX9.

When the couple arrived, the park was closed, so the couple returned to the apartment complex.

On the way home, the victim told police that Eaddy was using his phone, sending and receiving multiple text messages.

At one point, he also made a phone call to someone, police said.

Police said at about 11:50 p.m. the two arrived back at the apartment, where they were met by two suspicious men, including one with a gun.

The gunman allegedly ordered the victim out of his vehicle and asked him to hand over the keys.

During the robbery, the victim said that Eaddy “calmly got out of the vehicle” and appeared to “just stand and wait,” according to the affidavit.

The victim was ordered to lie down on the grass, and he noticed the two men and Eaddy get into the stolen vehicle and drive off together, police said.

According to the affidavit, the victim was able to provide Eaddy with a photo from a dating app, which led to his positive identification and arrest.
