Police have released the above images in an attempt to crack a nearly two month old robbery case that saw a 13-year-old boy get robbed near Atlantic Avenue and Cumberland Street on Tuesday, December 1.

It was around 4:40pm when the suspect “approached the victim from behind, turned him around, and showed him the butt of a handgun that was inside his pants’ pocket,” said cops. Then, the suspect stole the guy’s cell phone.

The suspect fled north on Cumberland Street and is described as a black man in his early 20s, standing between 5-feet-4-inches tall and 5-feet-6-inches tall. He was wearing a black hooded sweater, white du-rag, and dark jeans.
