Two Robbery Incidents May Be Linked

            Sully Police District – Robbery detectives are working two incidents that may be related. On Saturday, May 8 around 11:42 p.m., two males approached a 26-year-old man in the area of Cattail Lane and Summer Pond Drive; one of them pointed a gun at him and demanded money. The victim refused and the suspects fled without taking anything.

            Minutes later, around 11:44 p.m., police responded to a robbery in the 14300 block of Summer Tree Road, just up the street from the earlier incident. A 28-year-old man was approached by two males as he exited his vehicle. Again, one of the suspects pointed a gun at him and demanded money. When the victim refused, the suspect took his cell phone and both suspects fled toward Ridge Pond Drive.

            One suspect in the first case was described as white or Hispanic, about 19 years old. He was between 5 feet 7 inches and 5 feet 8 inches tall and 195 to 200 pounds, wearing a gray and black hoodie with horizontal stripes. The suspects in the second case were described as black and young, around 5 feet 7 inches tall and between 140 to 150 pounds. Neither victim was injured.
