Man fights off would-be mugger with BB gun
by Amy Sara Clark / Jersey Journal Thursday January 01, 2009 A man successfully fought off a mugger who stuck a BB gun in his stomach and demanded all his money, according to a police report. The incident occurred Tuesday just before 10:30 p.m. A 39-year-old Jersey City man was walking on West Side Avenue near Glenwood Avenue when two teens approached him, according to the report. One of the teens grabbed him, put the gun to his stomach and said "give me all you got or I'm gonna shoot you," according to the report. The victim said "go ahead," grabbed the gun and tried to drag the teen into the middle of the street to become more visible. The teen then tried to punch the victim in the face while the second teen "just stood there," according to the report. A police car approached and the teen let the victim go. The victim ran up to the car and identified the muggers. The cops followed the teens, catching one of them at the corner of Highland and West Side avenues and the other Sip and West Side avenues, according to the report. A 17-year-old teen, who is from Newark, was arrested and charged with robbery, possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes, unlawful possession of weapons and resisting arrest. The other teen, who the 17-year-old said was his 15-year-old brother, was not arrested.
