Armed Robbery

On 10-13-09 at approximately 1410 hours, the victim had exited the Augusta Ranch gated community onto S. Lansing when he was approached by two unknown black male suspects. Suspect #1 introduced himself as “K-T” from Chicago and asked the victim where he was from. Suspect #2 pulled out a black and silver handgun, held it in his right hand, and pointed it at the ground as Suspect #1 continued to speak with the victim. Suspect #1 grabbed the victim’s baseball hat and demanded his property. The victim complied and both suspects fled the area on foot.
