MILWAUKEE -- Milwaukee police are asking the public to help identify and locate multiple suspects who are accused of robbing a victim at gunpoint on Milwaukee’s northwest side on Thursday, January 21st.
Officers responded to the neighborhood near 29th and Villard shortly after 5 a.m. Thursday for a report of an armed robbery. The victim, a 47-year-old Milwaukee man, told officers he was walking down the street when a 2006 white Subaru Tribeca approached him and three suspects got out of the car. Two of the suspects were armed with guns and the suspects demanded the victim’s belongings. The victim complied and the suspects then fled in the car southbound on N. Teutonia Avenue.
Police say the video above shows the Subaru Tribeca in a nearby gas station just before the incident occurred along with a red Dodge Avenger that may have been a part of the crime as well. Surveillance video inside the gas station shows one of the suspects who was the driver of the Subaru. He is described as a male, black, in his late teens to early 20s, with a medium complexion. He was last seen wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, a black knit cap, tan jeans, and tan boots.
