Robbery
4:14 pm
Ocean Ave & Howth St
Officers responded to a report of an attempted robbery. The victim reported that he was with his friends and were filming themselves while doing skateboarding tricks when the suspect approached him and attempted to take his camera. The victim had previously wrapped the camera’s strap around his wrist, which prevented the suspect from easily taking away his camera. The victim’s friends immediately came to the victim’s aid by pushing the suspect on to the ground and punching him. Shortly after, the suspect got up and walked away towards a vehicle before entering it and leaving the area.

Officers responded to a report of a trespasser. Responding officers arrived at the location and observed that a subject had been watching their arrival before walking immediately away. The subject was then observed attempting to pull open a locked door that was nearby before walking away again. At that point, a witness approached the officers and stated that the subject that was just observed by the officers was the same suspect that was reported as the trespasser. The witness stated that they had heard a noise earlier and saw the suspect walking out of an apartment building, which the witness believed that the suspect had no reason to be inside. The witness called the police and followed the suspect.
