Police Investigate Armed Robbery At Apartment Complex

BOULDER, CO -- Police are looking for information about three men they say were involved in an armed robbery on the night of Jan. 5 near an apartment complex located at 2870 Kalmia Ave. A man reported to police that he was approached by the suspects as he exited his car shortly before 11 p.m. that evening, according to a report from the Boulder Police Department.

One of the suspects pointed a gun at the man and demanded everything he had. The man gave them his cell phone, wallet and car keys. After they told the victim to take off his shoes and socks, one of the suspects punched the victim on the side of the head and knocked him to the ground.

The man’s cell phone and wallet, minus $20, were found a short distance away, but car keys have not yet been recovered.

The first suspect is described as a male in his early 20s, 6-feet 3-inches tall, weighing about 200 pounds, with an average build, black hair, dark eyes and short hair. The second suspect is described as a Hispanic male, in his early 20s, 5-feet 10-inches tall, between 150 and 160 pounds, with skinny build, black hair, dark eyes, short hair and an accent. The victim could not provide a description of the third suspect.

Anyone with information regarding the possible identity of the suspect is asked to call Detective Ross Richart at 303-441-1833. Those who have information but wish to remain anonymous may contact the Northern Colorado Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
