Police are investigating after two people were robbed Monday night in Little Rock’s Riverfront Park, police said.
A 31-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman told officers two people approached them around 8 p.m. in the park, according to a report by Little Rock police.
One of the robbers, who was armed with a gun, hit the man in the head before pushing him to the ground and kicking him. The woman was not hurt, according to the report.
Police say the two assailants stole a backpack, a wallet and an iPhone 7 Plus from the pair before fleeing toward the Clinton Presidential Center.
Officers saw a small cut above the 31-year-old’s right eye, according to the report, but he refused further treatment.
