A male was allegedly robbed Tuesday around 6 p.m. near 25th Street and Queen Anne’s Lane., (which is between I and K streets) according to a University Crime Alert.

A male suspect approached the alleged male victim, “placed his hand on his shoulder,” grabbed the man’s cell phone and ran toward 24th Street, the e-mail said.  The suspect is described in the Infomail as a slim black male, approximately 6-feet-3-inches, 160 pounds, “between 15 to 20 years old with short black hair, wearing a black windbreaker jacket with a green lining and dark jeans.”

The e-mail said police searched the area – near 25th Street and K and I streets – but were unable to find the suspect.

The area around the Foggy Bottom Metro station has long been the focus of Metropolitan Police Department officers patrolling the area. Several violent crimes occurred over the summer around Washington Circle, an area popular among criminals because of its proximity to the Metro, MPD Sgt. Dustin Nevel said in July.

Most of those robberies, like Tuesday’s occurred between 5 p.m. and 8 p.m., the evening rush hour.
