Two armed suspects robbed an Crocker Amazon resident as he returned to his home on Friday afternoon, police have reported.

The incident began just before 5pm when the victim, a 61-year-old man, was pulling into his garage on the unit block of Baltimore Way. As he parked his car, two men in their twenties ran in and demanded his property.

As one suspect held the resident at gunpoint, his companion stole the victim's cash, a necklace, a phone and a jacket before both assailants fled in a vehicle that was not described. Although police have not made an arrest, the victim's phone was recovered.
