Police originally responded to the parking lot just after 12:30p.m. on April 4 and interviewed the victim. He told detectives while returning to his vehicle, he was shoved into the van, assaulted by three to four tall, thin, black males, who struck him with a handgun, forcing him to relinquish access to a large sum of money. The suspects fled the area in a white Chevrolet, four-door, compact car.
It has been brought to our attention that some local news agencies reported the assault occurred inside of Allegra's Restaurant which is not factual. Reporters Note: Zip06/The Sound was not among the agencies which incorrectly reported the information.
Although Detectives have followed up on a number of leads, they are asking anyone with information to contact the Branford Police Department at (203) 481-4241 or contact the Branford Crime Tip Line at 203-315-3909.
