Police: Strong-arm robbery under investigation

A Tuesday night robbery is currently under investigation, police say.

Around 9 p.m., officers were dispatched to an apartment in the 3100 block of Ousdahl Road for a robbery report, said Lawrence Police Officer Drew Fennelly. There, a 19-year-old man told officers someone took his property by force.

No weapon was used during the incident, Fennelly said.

Additional details about the incident were not available, Fennelly said, “due to the sensitive nature of the investigation.”
