Attempted robbery on 25th Street
From the Church Hill Crime Watch:
On the evening of October 11 a group of males attempted to rob an individual in the 400 block of N. 25th Street. The victim did have items of value but they were not taken. Unfortunately the victim was injured during the attempt. There are no helpful descriptions of suspects available at this time.
As always, please be aware of your surroundings as you exit buildings and cars. Keep an eye out for suspicious activity and the safety of your friends and neighbors. Please keep lights on around your property so that you and others can see what is happening around our neighborhood. If you see something call 9-1-1 immediately. We cannot prevent what has already occurred, but we can prevent crimes that have not yet happened.
NEVER hesitate to call the police. 9-1-1 if a crime is in progress or you need immediate assistance. 804-646-5100 if you have information that might be helpful or to report a crime that has already happened.
Take care. Look out for each other as the days get shorter.

Do we know what time of day it was?
Never mind haha I see it now
Do what I do…Always always have Mace Spray in hand when strolling. Compact enough to fit inside my hand. Takes allll the thinking out of it, perfectly legal and super easy to disable someone to flee the scene. No brainer!
There was a group of 5-6 young men walking down the 600 block of 28th street this evening trying door handles and looking in cars. One was a heavyset man with a red hat on wearing a jean jacket. They ran away when asked what they were doing walking down the street looking into cars and trying door handles.
This was reported to the RPD non-emergency number but just a heads up.
LOCK YOUR CARS.
“On the evening…..”. How about an exact time, please?
It’s sad that people who live in a city STILL have to be reminded to lock doors, be aware of surroundings, etc.
Who is to say they were not aware of their surroundings?
