File photo.

At 10:45 p.m. on Wednesday, a 25-year-old man was walking on 25th Street towards Lilac Street and thought he was being followed by a group of men in their early 20s. One of the men then grabbed the victim from behind and threw him against a wall, holding him there while the other men rifled through his pockets and took his wallet.

The group then fled on foot westbound on 25th Street. The police have not made any arrests.
