Some guy attempted to rob my friend last night at the Danville Starbucks in Blackhawk, I believe. Fearing the individual to be armed with a knife, my friend handed over his stuff. Upon noticing that the weapon was a writing pen, my friend snatched his stuff back. I'm not sure if the police were contacted. Please be on the lookout and report suspicious activities to the police.
