A 20-year-old Lawrence man reported to police Tuesday night that he was the victim of an armed robbery in the 300 block of West 12th Street, Lawrence police said.

The victim told police he was walking in the area when a man who appeared to be about 20 years old got out of a dark-colored passenger car about 11:15 p.m. Tuesday.

The suspect in the case was described as about six feet tall, and was wearing a dark coat and a dark stocking cap.

After the victim gave up his wallet, the suspect got back into the car and left the area, Sarna said.
