Overview
- Three masked suspects ambushed three people on the 1500 block of Locust Street around 3 a.m. Sunday, ordering them to the ground and taking belongings while one victim was struck in the face.
- Authorities say two suspects carried handguns and a third had an AR-15–style rifle, and posted video shows a victim on his knees being held at gunpoint.
- Stolen items included cellphones, watches, car keys, wallets, driver’s licenses and an undisclosed amount of cash.
- Police say the suspects fled in a gray vehicle last seen eastbound on Locust Street, and investigators later tied the car to a reported stolen Honda Accord that was recovered by officers.
- The case remains an active investigation with no arrests reported and police urging anyone with dashcam or security footage to call the department tip line as they use public video to track leads.
