Officials say that in a 15-minute period three vehicles were pulled over after a car drove up behind them with a flashing strobe light.

Once the vehicles were stopped, the men who pulled them over demanded money. In the last incident, police say the victim was pulled from his vehicle, assaulted and robbed.

Police tracked the car to a home in the Beddington Heights area and took three people believed to be connected to the incidents into custody.

Officers found a vehicle at the residence that matched the description of the one involved, and officers found lights that could be used to pull people over.
