Heads up yall! Armed Robbery at Henry Clay and Coliseum

The 4p-12a police detail was on duty in Upper Hurstville Security District and was the first responder on this call.  The following is a preliminary report from the UHSD patrol:

Just prior to the crime, the perps circled by the victim at least twice in a white small model SUV, but the victim, who was walking from his parent’s house in the area of St. Charles Ave., did not take note of the danger. At the corner of Coliseum and H. Clay, he was surprised when they came upon him from behind, struck him once and held him down while they frisked him. The victim was carrying a concealed weapon, a revolver, which was stolen along with his cell phone and wallet. He is not believed to be seriously injured.

Per NOPD, the perps are believed to be three B/M’s of average height, possibly teenagers. They were wearing dark colored hoodies. One was armed during the attack. They fled in the white SUV north towards St. Charles Ave.

FYI, on Sat. there was an armed robbery wherein the victim was shot in the stomach several hundred yards away in Daneel Park at Octavia at St. Charles.   The description of the perps therein is being checked against what happened in UHSD.
