Back on Oct. 19 at around 1:30 p.m., police received a report of a robbery on 2nd Street E.

An investigation determined that two women and a man approached the victim, threatened them with a knife, and stole their wallet.

Thankfully, the victim did not report any injuries to police.

Later on, a man used the victim’s accounts to buy things at a local business.
