Have these people been caught yet? Has there been any word from the police? 
Isn't that the intersection where the cooffee house is? I see the UCD people
there nearly every night. Weren't they there then?

Hello Ray:

 yikes. what time were these incidents? (roughly)

My roommate was robbed at 43rd and Baltimore at around 11:30.  I don't 
know when the robbery at 42nd and Locust occurred, but I may be able to 
find out later.

[UC] 43rd and 42nd Streets: Two robberies at gunpoint last night

2007-09-04 Thread nrvs
My roommate got robbed at gunpoint last night near 43rd and Baltimore. 
Luckily, he wasn't hurt, but the people who robbed him (three young black 
men on BMX bikes) took his wallet and phone.  The police said they robbed 
someone else at 42nd and Locust too.


I'm sure someone will be along shortly to point out how statistically safe 
our University City Village is.  However, the fact remains that residents 
of our neighborhood are accosted by men with guns on a very regular basis.

Re: [UC] 43rd and 42nd Streets: Two robberies at gunpoint last night

2007-09-04 Thread Elizabeth F Campion

I am sorry that your roommate suffered the horrific experience of being
robbed at gun point.
I hope he recovers his emotional equilibrium quickly and completely and
that he is made whole for any losses.

As you predicted, someone, me, has an objection to your post.
regular basis is hard to define and inflammatory.

I have lived between 43rd and 49th for 50 of my 52 years.
My husband has lived between 45th and 49th for the past 20 years.
My daughter between 39th and 49th for 21 years,
My son between 45th and 49th for 16 years and
our foster Daughter between 30th and 64th Street for many years.
Not one of us has ever been robbed at gun point.
Collectively, we have over 120 gun-crime free years.
None of our tenants have ever been robbed at gunpoint.
None of my close friends who live nearby has ever been robbed at gun
point.

We believe those who have had the experience, but
it is not an experience I would define as normal or regular.

I think you and I can agree that:
Once is too often
More should be done to keep guns away from children and
criminals.

It makes me especially sad, because I felt as if the foot traffic around
the GREENLINE has made us all a little safer and better connected.
I wonder if the ATM at the Best House is the attractive nuisance.
I remember when an ADA was shot and killed at an ATM in Society Hill near
2nd and Pine.
At first there was some fear it was retaliation, but it turned out to be
a robbery gone very, very bad.

Over the weekend, my assistant, a PENN Sophomore, had her purse taken by
a sneak thief, who was able to remove it from the bench she was sitting
on, at 40th and Locust, without her notice.  

Welcome back to a new school year in University City.
The neighborhood will be at its most chaotic (and most vulnerable) until
the neighbors adjust to its changing population and people have a sense
of who belongs where, how to cross the street at a busy intersection, and
how to honor bike lanes.
I hope we all operate with heightened awareness and consideration.

Thanks for the warning.

Liz
