Two robberies were reported last night within 10 minutes of each other, one of which was at gunpoint. Both victims emerged unscathed, but were deprived of their cell phones and cash.

At 1:50 a.m. early Friday morning, a 20-year-old woman was on Capp Street between 19th and 20th when two men in their early 20s chased her down the street. When the men caught up to the victim, they went through her pockets and took her cell phone and cash before fleeing in a older tan SUV. The police have not made an arrest.

And at 2 a.m. on 19th and Mission, two men aged 24 and 25 were approached by a 19-year-old man with a black handgun, who held up the pair as he went through their pockets. The suspect stole a cell phone, wallet, and cash from both victims before fleeing on foot. The police have not made an arrest.
