“I was walking down the street late Thursday night. I was trying to get home since my ride did not show up. Suddenly, two
masked robbers were trying to take money from me. ‘Give me your wallet,” said one of the robbers. The other robber pushed
me down on some grass and held me down. I shouted out for help. I heard a yell from one of the houses and saw a light turn
on. A man who looked to be in his forties chased one of the robbers and tackled him. He was an off-duty police officer.
Eventually, the police showed up and found the other robber hiding in some bushes a block down. I was lucky that I was not
harmed badly and I got my wallet back.
