Police probe street robbery case



From STAFF REPORTS

CORDELE — Local police have received another report of a robbery on city streets.

The victim in the latest complaint was a man who told Sgt. Jeremy Taylor he was at a 16th Ave. W. location shortly after 5 p.m. Thursday when a shirtless black male wearing black pants with a red stripe robbed him.

After taking the victim’s money, the offender ran into a nearby house that police searched shortly thereafter without finding anyone inside. Additional information about the case was obtained from two women who apparently witnessed the robber fleeing the scene on foot.

In other recent activity, officers:

— Recovered two stolen pistols that were taken by nightclub employees searching a man entering their 11th St. S. business just before 1 a.m. Friday.

Lt. Louis New took possession of the .38-calibre weapons one of which had been previously reportedly stolen in the city and the other in the county.

— Investigated three vandalism cases.

Robert McGlamory told Sgt. Cecil Rogers that sometime between 8:30-9 p.m. Thursday his 2000 Ford Ranger was “keyed” completely around the body while the vehicle was on the Wal-Mart parking lot.

Alfonso Clark told Rogers that while he was away from his room in a boarding house at 202 11th St. S. someone tore his door off its hinges.

A Flowers Bakery Thrift Store employee told Sgt. Dean Brown that someone had cut two padlocks and removed them and a 10-foot chain from a trash dumpster outside that 16th Ave. E. location.

— Received a complaint that a slender white male of medium height with dark hair that appears to be balding has been harassing females in the Whisperwood Apartments complex on 16th Ave. E.

Sgt. Robert Green was given the name of and possible place of employment for the suspect. In checking out that information, Green said he was told the subject only worked for about a week and was believed to be living out of an abandoned car somewhere in the city.

— Probed a theft report filed by Mary Beal of 503 21st Ave. W.
