MOORHEAD (KFGO) - A man claims he was robbed at gunpoint in Moorhead early Monday.
The victim says he drove to Moorhead from Fargo with a woman he had met earlier. He told police he was visiting with the woman in the 1100 block of 19th Street South when a "heavier" black male approachedm, pointed a gun at him and stole cash. The suspect and the woman then fled the scene.
Lt. Mike Detloff say the robbery report came in just after midnight, minutes after officers responded to an armed domestic incident about 10 blocks away. As a result, Clay County sheriff's deputies handled the initial call.
Because of the proximity to MSUM, a campus-wide alert was sent out to students and staff.
