An MTSU Student claims two men robbed him at gunpoint in the College Grove Apartment Complex parking lot on Sunday. The reported victim evidently waited until Monday afternoon to report the incident to police. Since that time, police have gathered a photo of the suspect that was taken by an ATM security camera on the night of the robbery. 

WGNS obtained a police report on Tuesday outlining the details of the reported crime and the man claims that when the robbers realized his wallet was empty, they forced him to drive to an ATM where they made him withdraw $500. The victim says he then drove back to College Grove Apartments where the thieves threatened him to not call the police. That was when the men supposedly took the student’s iPhone 4. The two men then fled the scene heading towards Old Lascassas Pike.
