Unlucky occasion

Four patrons of an East Passyunk Crossing bar became robbery victims Saturday.

Following their departure from Lucky 13 Bar, 1820 S. 13th St., at 2 a.m., the complainants walked westbound on Mifflin Street when an unknown male approached them from behind, eventually moving in front of them to demand their belongings, which he did by sticking his hand in his pocket to simulate the possession of a weapon, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. After handing over their items, they realized a second foreign man standing behind them.

The second stranger asked the first for something, with the complainants stating the latter removed a black gun from his waistband and gave it to the former before the two walked westbound on Mifflin Street from 13th Street. They described the men as black, 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-9, 18 to 20 years old; having thin builds and wearing zippered hoodies.
