Two men robbed a male of his cell phone in Dickinson Square West last week.
Stopping on the 500 block of Federal Street at 10:40 p.m. Dec. 1, the complainant had two strangers approach him from behind, with the first inquiring “What do you have on you?,” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He gave the figure his cashless wallet, with the offender then reaching into his target’s pants pocket, from which he retrieved a silver iPhone 6 Plus.
While partially removing his hand from his jacket pocket to reveal a gun handle, the aggressor asked for the passcode, making off with his accomplice on foot via Fifth Street. The victim described the first as black, in his mid 20s, 5-foot-8 and 160 pounds; having a thin build, a light complexion, a mustache and short hair; wearing a black hooded bubble jacket, camouflage pants, black sneakers and a dark baseball cap with a silver brim; and carrying a black gun; and the other male as black, in his mid 20s and 5-foot-10; having a medium build, a light complexion, short hair and sideburns and wearing a light gray hoodie, dark jeans, white and gray sneakers and a dark baseball cap.
