January 30, 12:15 a.m.—A 53-year-old man noticed a two-door Chevy vehicle across the street as he was getting into his own car on the 6100 block of South Kenwood Avenue. A man emerged from the Chevy, tried to converse with the victim, then displayed a handgun and demanded money. The victim resisted, a scuffle ensued, and both fell to the ground, at which point a second offender emerged from the Chevy. The victim stood up and ran into a building. No property was taken. The first suspect was described as a black male, 21 to 25 years old, 5-foot-6, 160 pounds, of a slim build, and of medium complexion, reportedly wearing a black hoodie, black hat, and dark jeans. The second offender was described as a black male, 21 to 25 years old, 5-foot-8, 160 pounds, of a slim build, and wearing a brown vest, brown shirt, and brown pants.
