Two men surrounded a car that was parking in a city-owned parking lot in Bella Vista and robbed the vehicle’s occupants Sunday afternoon.
Three women — a 27- and two 28-year-olds — were parking in a lot at 1012-26 E. Passyunk Ave. at 12:44 p.m. when a pair of armed men stood on both sides of the automobile, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. A man armed with a small, silver revolver stood on the driver’s side while a man armed with a small, black handgun covered the other side. The two demanded the women’s purses before fleeing eastbound on foot.
Stolen content in their bags included identification, credit cards, cash and cell phones, Tolliver said.
The suspect on the driver’s side was described as Asian, age 25 to 30, 5-foot-3 to 5-foot-7, thin and wearing a black turtleneck sweater and a black leather jacket while the suspect on the passenger’s side was described as Hispanic, age 25 to 30, 5-foot-7, thin, with dark, short hair and wearing a black winter jacket.
