MIAMI (CBSMiami) - Miami-Dade police detectives are asking the public's help in identifying a man accused of kidnapping and robbing a woman who had just parked her vehicle inside a Miami parking garage.
Police say it happened March 23 at around 8 a.m. in a parking garage in the 12000 block of Biscayne Boulevard.
Authorities say a woman was parking and as she exited her vehicle, the suspect placed her in a chokehold.

The suspect fled the scene on foot.
