Man robbed at 41st and Walnut Police are currently searching for the suspect, described as a 6'2" black man, with a beard, stocky build and a dark complexion, who allegedly grabbed the victim's grocery bags while he was walking along Walnut Street sometime around 7:30 p.m. After the victim screamed, the assailant pulled out a knife and demanded the man's wallet. The victim handed over the wallet and the suspect fled north on 41st Street. The victim was not physically harmed in the robbery. It was unclear last night whether he was affiliated with the University. This is the first reported armed robbery on or near campus of the semester. -- Jonathan Margulies
