Citizen Armed Robbery
On 8-4, at approximately 0205 hours, units responded to Anne Street and
Hammond Avenue for the report of an armed robbery. The victim was
walking along Anne Street and Hammond Avenue when a silver Chevrolet
Impala pulled up alongside of him. A rear passenger, described as a
black male with dredlocks and a beard, exited the vehicle, produced a
dark colored semi-automatic handgun and demanded money. The suspect
pushed the victim to the ground and put the handgun to the back of his
head. The suspect took cash, returned to the suspect vehicle and fled.
The suspect vehicle was last seen driving down Lockney Avenue from Anne
Street. The victim said he heard several gunshots as the suspect
vehicle drove away. A K-9 search of the area revealed negative
results.
