POLICE and CIU are investigating the mugging of a Frum man early this morning, TLS has learned. At approximately 1:30 a.m. this morning, a resident driving on James Street stopped to make a phone call, when a brick came flying through his window, Detective Lieutenant William Addison tells TLS.
The suspect then odered the Yungerman, 34, out of his vehicle saying he had a gun, and demanded his wallet and cell phone, Addison said.
The man gave the suspect a $100 bill and his cell phone and threw his keys onto a nearby rooftop.
The suspect then grabbed a laptop from the victim’s car and fled.
The suspect is described as a black man, wearing dark pants and a grey hoodie, which blocked his face.
The viticm was unijured. TLS-CC.
Where on James was this??
between rt 9 and cross street
“Who owns this house people” Where are you?
why do you pull over on a dark road around 130am to make a phone call, and why is the bad guy always a black male? I know this area, did the bad man just appear out of nowhere. (Moderated). Seems fishy…………i hope Officer K. Doyle # 303 is on this mission.
another outcome from the stupity of needing a headset… have to stop to make a phone call…
why is a guy driving at 1;30 am then pills over to make a call doesnt make sence its so dark there y would he pull over also this story is so fishy
I agree with you #4 (big bad wolfie)..seems fishy to me too. First of all..Pulled over to make a call? Since when ?? They talk on the phone and drive all the time. #2..This man just came out of nowhere?? ..And you threw the keys on a rooftop when he threatened with a gun?? If you were that brave I don’t think you would have given him anything in the first place. I hope this gets investigated thoroughly.
O’Doyle rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all, I used to work nights, where I would be on the road as late (or as early?) as 3 AM. Reasons why this person was on the road at this time is irrelevant.
Second, I too pull over if I must make a call. Doesn’t matter the time of day or where I am (except for major highways)
James St is terribly lit, and has an incredibly high speed limit of 45 mph. which many drivers exceed, especially late at night.
Chances are, this person has the internet, and goes online, and possibly to news sites such as this one. If he is indeed a victim here, how do you think he would feel reading such judgmental posts?
What ever happened to ahavas yisroel ?
Thats why Officer K. Doyle needs to be in the Db, he would have this case solved and the man where he deserves to be BEHIND BARS, with K. Doyle on cases nobody will get away wit hrobbing a Frum
What is going on here?! A sick incident happens and you’re blaming a guy for doing a terrible crime of pulling over on James st?!! What’s wrong with pulling over to make a call? Who ever heard of bricks flying through peoples windows?! If it’s unsafe to stop on James st at ANY TIME then there’s a big problem in this town. And don’t start blaming PD either;there’s only so much a force of less than 10 officers can do when they have to cover the whole of Lakewood during midnight shift.
What is going on in this town? When all this is happening we are in the middle of losing cops. We NEED to add to our police force, Lakewood is no longer a small town its a City. We need to help make it safe for someone to obey the law, the man did what was right and not drive while speaking on the phone.
yea and there are those who keep saying things are better now than they were 20 years ago, They must mean Lakewood Colorado
