Street Robbery: 00 Wilson Blvd. (12-176849) 6/11/12, 2115 (32)
S-1 M/B, white short-sleeve T-shirt
S-2 M/B, no further description.
V was riding his silver "Specialized" brand mountain bike just off the walking path of the U of R when he was accosted by the two suspects who knocked him to the ground. The two repeatedly punched him in the face, causing both of his eyes to be almost swollen shut. They demanded everything he had or they would kill him, V gave them his "fanny pack" which contained his pre-paid T-Mobile cell phone and his registered Springfield Arms 9mm pistol. It is unsure which way the suspects fled. The victim managed to make his way to the PSB where he encountered an East Division officer.

wow thats a ruff situation.......i am assuming that he wouldnt have perceived these people as a threat, and while ridding a bike it would make it very difficult to pull your weapon out of your fanny pack..... if he thought they may be a threat he should have headed the opposite direction, and or got off the bike far enough away so he could prepare himself for a possible altercation! but i have never handled or used a fanny pack for carry i know they make specific ones for cc but how hard is it to pull your weapon out of it? and could you do it while taking a beating? what other options would you have for cc while riding a bike? (i wear cargo shorts and carry my p3at in the cargo pocket)

Same thought crossed my mind. I'm actually surprised I haven't gotten an email from UR Safety yet, as I work for UR, and they tend to report this stuff pretty quick.

But campus is safe, you won't need a gun to defend yourself, just call campus police...ya right.

He had a gun in his fanny pack while riding through campus? He must have been there to kill tons of people.

Thank God those two model citizens came to the aid of the campus and disarmed him.

U of R campus has a lot of problems, especially along the river. There's a path that leads to and from campus that the people take off on and are never caught.

hermannr was being sarcastic.....lol

hermannr was being sarcastic.....lol

I know. I'm just pointing out that it has, from my unscientific observations, more problems than any other college in the Rochester area when it comes to assaults and the like, due in large to the access to the river/canal paths.

 

[mguyf86]

ahhh i see......i love it "unscientific observations" next time i play hang man i will use those words!!!! lol

How can I sign up for the "robbery of the month" emails? Is it like the book of the month club?

A gun in a fanny pack, may as well have it stuffed up your butt.
