A robber threatened two men’s lives in Lower Moyamensing early Saturday.
A pair of 21-year-olds were strolling along the 800 block of West Moyamensing Avenue at 1:30 a.m. when an unknown man pointed a semi-automatic handgun at them and said, “Give me everything you guys have or I’m gonna kill you,” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. One of the men gave up his iPhone, $50 and identification while the other handed him his cell phone, keys and wallet that contained identification, check card and a $35 Best Buy gift card. The offender demanded “Don’t move” as he rummaged through their pockets before fleeing east on Moyamensing and south on Eighth Street.
The thief was described as Hispanic or Asian with a dark complexion, age 21 to 29, 6 foot, thin, having brown eyes, a light-colored mustache and beard and long, black hair; and wearing a black scull cap, dark-colored hoody, gray sweatpants with a Rocawear logo on his left thigh and dark-colored shoes.
