Strong-arm robbery near Christiana Mall
By Frank Gerace

State Police are investigating a strong-arm robbery near the Christiana Mall Tuesday, a holdup that's similar to a robbery attempt that happened in the same place last Sunday.

Police say 2 men punched another man in the face and head as the victim walked in the field near the bus depot adjacent to the mall around 7:15 Tuesday morning.

The robbers knocked the victim to the ground, he gave up his wallet, and the suspects took off toward the Cavalier Country Club Apartments.

Sunday afternoon, a man punched another man and knocked him to the ground in the same field, but couldn't rip the victim's backpack from his grasp.

Anyone with information can call Troop 2 or Crimestoppers.
