Gun produces crime

110833861

A gun-wielding man made off with a woman’s possessions in Newbold Sunday.

At approximately 2 a.m., the complainant was walking in the area of 15th and Dickinson streets when an unknown black man approached her from behind, pointed a black gun at her and demanded her property, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. She handed him her wallet, which contained identification and miscellaneous paperwork and an iPod before he fled northbound on the 1600 block of South Hicks Street.

Authorities surveyed the area, Tolliver said, but had negative results. The victim, who put the value of her stolen property at $320, added that the robber was in his early 20s, 6 foot; had a thin build and short dark hair; and wore a navy blue bandana to cover his face and dark clothing.
