Man Robbed in Penrose Neighborhood

District 6 officers responded to a Hold Up in the area of N. Taylor and San Francisco around 11:30 a.m. on November 10.

A 65-year-old man told officers he was giving a ride to 2 men he knew only as acquaintances when one of the men pressed something to the man’s back and told him he had a gun.

The man told the 65-year-old man to transfer money to him through a cash app, which the 65-year-old man did.

Both acquaintances left the man’s vehicle and walked away.

The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call the North Patrol Division Station at 314-444-0001 for a District 6 detective. Anyone who wants to remain anonymous and/or is interested in a possible reward can call CrimeStoppers at 866-371-TIPS (8477).
