District 5 is investigating a robbery that happened on December 18 in the 3400 block of Belt.
Officers responded to a prior hold-up call in the 3700 block of Delor and met a 16-year-old male who reported he was robbed. The 16-year-old told officers he met with three unknown males around 4:40 p.m. in the 3400 block of Belt so that they could trade game systems with each other. While there, the 16-year-old said all three suspects demanded his property with one of the suspects pulling out a firearm.
The 16-year-old said the armed suspect took his game system before all three fled on foot from the scene. The investigation is ongoing.
