Bicyclist is robbed on Francis Avenue

A Harvard affiliate was the victim of an unarmed robbery on Sunday, Nov. 12, at approximately 5:21 p.m. While riding a bicycle down Francis Avenue toward Bryant Street, the victim heard a fast approaching vehicle heading in the same direction. The victim pulled to the right between two parked vehicles. The vehicle then stopped and an individual reached out of the vehicle and forcibly removed a bag from the victim's back. The vehicle fled down Francis Avenue, around the corner onto Bryant Street. The vehicle is described as a 1980s, two-tone blue-black sedan, with a loud muffler. The two occupants are described as males. No further description is available at this time.

If you have any information regarding this incident, please contact the Cambridge Police Department, Investigative Division at (617) 349-3370.
