ST. LOUIS — An investigation is underway after a man was robbed at gunpoint at a south city McDonald’s Wednesday afternoon.
Police responded to the McDonald’s at 1919 Jefferson around 4:40 p.m. where a 30-year-old man said he met up with a woman to buy a cellphone from her.
While discussing the transaction on the parking lot, the woman started to grab his front right pocket and demand money. The victim started to yell for help, which drew the attention of bystanders. Another man joined the woman and a physical struggle started with the victim.
The woman pulled out a gun and pointed it at the victim. Both robbers then got into a silver SUV and left the scene.
The man’s wallet was taken during the incident. He was not injured.
