Watertown Man Robbed After Disagreement Over Price of an Escort

A disagreement over payment to a female escort turned into an armed robbery for a Galen Street resident on Oct. 11.

The man called Watertown Police at 3:04 a.m. to report an armed robbery, said Watertown Police Lt. Michael Lawn.

“The victim hired a female escort, and they had an argument over the price,” Lawn said. “After the argument, a male came in and demanded money and picked up a hammer.”

The man told the victim to give him his wallet, and took three televisions and two DVDs, Lawn said.
