We had two robberies that occurred Nov. 29. The first occurred at 8:30 p.m. at 660 Ralph McGill Blvd. The victims were unloading bags out of their vehicle and three black men robbed them at gunpoint and left in a gold-colored Toyota Camry.
The second robbery occurred at 180 Jackson St. around 9:10 p.m. The victims were sitting in a vehicle and the perpetrators yanked the driver's side door open and snatched a laptop from the driver. They then demanded money from both the driver and passenger of the vehicle. There were three perpetrators involved in this incident as well.
The investigation continues.
