Police seeking teen boys in robbery of man on South Side

YOUNGSTOWN — Police are looking for a group of teen boys for the attempted armed robbery of a 57-year-old man walking on the South Side.

The man told police he was walking on Market Street near Avondale Avenue at 8 p.m. Monday when a group of four teens asked him for money. The man handed the group $2, but one boy pulled out a handgun and demanded more cash. The teenagers walked off after the man proved he had no more money.

The man told police the teen with the gun had assaulted him a few weeks ago.
