Detectives with the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office are investigating Friday night’s robbery of a Holly Hill man that occurred in a rural area of western Flagler County.

The victim, Shaun Williams, 34, told deputies that a woman he met two weeks prior had picked him up in Daytona Beach Friday night to go on their first date. Williams said the woman had two other men in her car when she picked him up. The woman told Williams one of the men was her brother and that she had to drop him off at his house after which she would take Williams to dinner.

The woman drove around for several minutes before eventually ending up on a small side road of off West State Road 100, in Bunnell. The woman then backed the vehicle down a small side road into an empty cow pasture.

Williams told deputies he got out of the vehicle and was then hit in the face with a hard metal object and fell to the ground. One of the males then told Williams to give him all his money and clothes.

Williams asked the man if he was serious. The man then pointed a handgun at him. Williams then emptied his pockets, took off all of his clothing, and turned everything over to the man. The woman and two men then fled, leaving Williams standing naked on the side of the road.

Deputies found Williams bloodied and naked walking along West State Road 100 near County Road 205, in Bunnell. Williams was taken to Florida Hospital Flagler where he was treated for several minor injuries.

Detectives are asking anyone with information on the incident to contact their offices at 586-4801 or call Crimestoppers at 888-277-TIPS (8477).
