Robbers Assault Man in Dark South San Francisco Alley at Knifepoint, Gunpoint: Police

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA — Police are looking for two men suspected of a strong-arm robbery that happened over the weekend, according to South San Francisco police officials.

At about 10:50 p.m. Saturday the victim was walking to his car in the 300 block of Armour Avenue when the two assailants approached the man, police said.

"The victim was stopped by a male suspect who pointed a black handgun at him," police said in a news release. "At the same time, a second male suspect came from behind the victim and placed the vicim in a headlock and pressed a knife to the right side of the victim's lower back."

Then, while the victim was restrained, the first man took the person's wallet — and both suspects took off, police said.

The first suspect is described by police as a Hispanic man in his 20s, about 5 feet 6 inches tall and with a medium build. He was wearing a black beanie, a black sweatshirt with the hood pulled up, a white T-shirt and black jeans.

The second man is described only as an adult wearing a black hooded sweatshirt.
