ELMWOOD PARK — Police are looking for an "armed and dangerous" Paramus man who allegedly robbed a 17-year-old girl at gunpoint Monday night.

The girl met Marco Druskovich, 18, on Elmwood Drive to buy narcotics, Elmwood Park Police Chief Michael Foligno said.

She pulled up in her vehicle and Druskovich got in and asked her to drive. As she did, he put a silver semi-automatic handgun to her head and demanded money, Foligno said.

The girl, "in an act of desperation," slammed on the gas, Foligno said. Druskovich grabbed the steering wheel and the two struggled to control the vehicle, striking three cars parked on Elmwood Drive before coming to a stop.

Druskovich robbed the girl of $50 and met an accomplice waiting nearby.

Elmwood Park Police and a Bergen County Sheriff's Office K-9 unit searched the area, but couldn't find Druskovich or the gun.

Druskovich is wanted on robbery and weapons possession charges. He should be considered "armed and dangerous," Foligno said.

The girl suffered minor injuries.

Anyone with information should call Elmwood Park Police at 201-796-0700.
