ARMED ROBBERY SATURDAY MORNING IN THE 400 BLOCK OF NORTH TENTH STREET

COLUMBIA, MO (June 7, 2015) - On 6/6/15 at 2:48 A.M., officers were dispatched to the 400 block of North Tenth Street in reference to a robbery with a gun.

 

The investigation revealed a male victim was approached at the intersection of Tenth Street and Rogers Street by three male suspects. One of the suspects pointed a gun at the victim and demanded money. As the victim grabbed the gun, he was assaulted by all three suspects.
