Midtown Alert – Pedestrian Robberies
November 21, 2011 · Posted in Eye on Midtown
On Saturday night, around 8:00 pm, a couple was held up at gunpoint on 6th Street between Piedmont and Juniper. The perpetrator was a black male, early 20s, who came up behind them and took their cell phone.
We have received another report of a later robbery at 3rd & Piedmont. Two people were detained but the victim could not postively identify them so they were released.
This is all the detail we have at this time. Major Leighty has added four additional officers to the Midtown Precinct.
We will post any updates coming our way at our Facebook page
