Rudy Alvarado, a 22-year old former Rockland resident was arrested in connection with an earlier armed robbery on Freedman Ave, in which the bungling crooks made off with $15 and left a handgun at the scene. Police are still searching for the other three men involved in the robbery.
An armed robbery happened at 3:20 am in Nanuet last night. Four men in a silver car, carrying a handgun, robbed a man of his wallet. Strangely, police recovered the handgun at the scene, meaning that somehow the robber left the gun behind.
We applaud the incredible self-discipline of the victim to not recover the gun himself and use it to mow down the robbers in a Scarface-esque hail of gunfire.
Strangely, we didn’t see this one in the Journal News!
