Authorities are seeking two men who robbed a pair of males in Newbold last week.
Walking westbound on the 1800 block of McKean Street at 9:35 p.m. Nov. 5, the complainants encountered two figures on bicycles, with the lead individual announcing “Hey, fellas, give it up,” Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. He then lifted his shirt to show them the butt of a gun in his waistband.
The first victim handed over his cell phone and wallet to the gun toter, and the second complainant gave the same items to the accomplice before the offenders fled along McKean Street. They described the first as black, 5-foot-10 to 6 foot, 25 to 35 years old and 140 to 150 pounds; having a dark complexion, a full mustache and goatee, an oval face and prominent teeth; and wearing a gray hoodie, dark gray sweatpants and a black cover on his head; and the second as the same race and age bracket; having a medium build and dark complexion; and wearing dark clothing, including a hoodie.
