A Texas man looking to sell a car was killed Tuesday after going on a test drive with two potential buyers he found through a social media app, authorities said.
Khudhair Hamdan, 55, was found lying unresponsive in the 700 block of Port Richmond Way in Arlington around 6 p.m., the Arlington Police Department said.
Hamdan was rushed to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
