by Mary Galioto

On Wednesday, September 9, 2015 at approximately 11:55 am a 24 year old resident, within the Lawrenceville Avalon Run Apartment complex’ area of building 6, was the victim of an armed robbery/home invasion.

The resident opened the front door to the resident, after hearing someone knocking, and was met by a black male who entered the apartment armed with a handgun. The black male suspect then forced the victim at gunpoint to drive to a nearby bank and withdraw money from the victim’s bank account.  The suspect then forced the victim to turn over the money to him and to drive the suspect male to the City of Trenton. The suspect male then fled the victim’s vehicle with the victim’s money leaving the victim unharmed.
