A man was robbed of his cell phone and some cash at 11:10 p.m. on Wednesday night at Capp and 17th streets.

The victim said he met the three suspects and gave them a ride from 16th and Valencia streets to Capp and 17th streets. The suspects, described as men between the ages of 30 and 35, demanded the victim’s property and fled on foot, heading northbound on Capp Sreet.

    Um…lesssee… the first incident was “…reported at 7pm Thursday…” well thanks ML and the UC journalism dept for good reporting. You invented a web-based time machine since I read this at 2pm on Thursday. Ill look out for this future event. And the second report, even later tonight I guess. Ill stay far away from 17th/Capp. Good job. Youll do well under rommeneny. Time now for fresh air.

    Why was a report even filed for the first incident? 76 year old woman + computer = Worthless Tandy 286 computer!

    Why did the person in the 2nd incident report it? How stupid of him. Marcos, Cap + 17th St = male/male.male.male prostitution deal gone bad!
