Officers spent hours examining the victim's vehicle, a black Lamborghini, in the condo's front driveway.

Police said the victim drove the vehicle back to the building after the robbery and called police.

"Fortunately he was not injured, however no one should have to go through this, especially at their place of residence," Delva said.

The brazen robbery had building residents concerned.

"It’s crazy, it’s just crazy, Miami’s becoming so terrible," said Francisco Orrego.

The incident remains under investigation.
