The NOPD is seeking to speak with three persons of interest in regards to an armed robbery that occurred on September 28, 2017 at the intersection of North Broad and Republic streets.
The victim told police that at about 2:15 p.m., he entered the D&M Supermarket located at the intersection of North Broad and Duels streets. After making a purchase, the victim said, he exited the store and walked northbound on North Broad Street. At that time, the victim said, he was approached by an unknown black male believed to be 17 to 18 years old and wearing blue jeans and a white tank top. After a brief discussion, the victim and subject continued in their respective directions. The victim said that as he walked, the unknown black male came up from behind him, placing his arm around him and allegedly pointing a handgun at the victim’s side and demanding the victim’s money. The victim complied and the subject then fled the scene on foot.
The three pictured individuals are not wanted in this incident, but detectives believe the three may have information pertaining to this incident.
