Police say two men, ages 20-30, robbed another man at gunpoint near 45th and Pine Streets at around 4:30 a.m. on Sunday.

The victim was coming home from work and was standing outside his apartment building at 315 S 45th Street looking for his keys when he heard someone running up behind him. He turned to see what was going on and saw a man pointing a black semi-automatic handgun at him. The attacker said: “Give me all your stuff!” The victim handed his belongings (a cell phone, $200, a backpack and wallet containing his ID, credit cards and a Kindle) to the second attacker, according to police.

After taking his belongings both males ran off westbound on Pine Street. The victim was not injured. No arrests have been made.

Jen, a 28-year-old Asian American, was a victim of a robbery at gunpoint that occurred yesterday morning at the corner of 50th and Hazel. Jen wanted to let others know of this attack, particularly since it occurred at a time when many folks are walking to the EL and trolleys. She reported this incident to the police, who confirmed it to us and said that they are actively working on this case.

Here’s what Jen wrote us:

“Between 8:20 and 8:25 AM on Tuesday March 20th I was the victim of a robbery at gun point at the corner of 50th and Hazel. Just before leaving my house that morning, I saw a stranger standing at the corner of 50th and Osage (in front of Sonny Hill’s building) and thought nothing of it. I began to walk southbound on 50th Street toward the 50th and Baltimore trolley stop. By the time I passed Larchwood I heard footsteps very close to me and when I slightly turned my head over, I saw that he had a mask covering his nose and mouth. I was alarmed and attempted to get rid of him by making a quick turn onto Hazel, but he pulled out a gun from his backpack and demanded everything that I had. I threw him my purse and at that point he jogged off southbound on 50th street.

The mask he wore was a reddish to blue paisley printed bandana (the red turned into a dark blue towards the bottom of the bandana) and [he] appeared to be in his 30’s, black, about 6-feet tall, and thin (I would guess 170 – 180 lbs). He was wearing a navy blue hoodie, and carried a dark green backpack (the straps were black like a Jansport bag). His gun was a large revolver with a black handle, and a gunmetal colored [barrel]. He did not point the gun at me, but pulled the gun out of his backpack with his hand and fingers ready to pull the trigger.”
