A man who was trying to sell his cell phone was robbed at gunpoint by his potential buyers around 1:24 a.m. Tuesday.
 
The man met up with two black male suspects at a gas station near Martin Luther King Boulevard and Bonanza Road. Reports say that the two suspects got into the man's car to talk. That's when one of the potential buyers pulled out a gun.
 
Two shots were fired inside the car. Amazingly, no one was hurt.
 
The two buyers took off in a gold-colored Dodge with the victim's wallet and cell phone.
