A Uniontown man who went to meet a buyer after listing his Xbox One on Craigslist was robbed by three males, including one who brandished a gun.
The 18-year-old man was approached by three males shortly after 6:30 p.m. Sunday in the 800 block of East Crosier Street in Akron, where he had agreed to meet a buyer. Two arrived by bicycle and the third approached while they talked. He brandished a handgun and told the victim to leave. One of the other men took the gaming console and all three fled the scene.
The three ran east on East Crosier and then north toward Fifth Avenue. One of the suspects left a bicycle behind, which police catalogued into evidence.
