Police responded to a robbery report near the intersection of 18th Street and Montgomery Avenue around 2:20 a.m. on Dec. 10, according to a police statement released earlier today.

The complainant, a 37-year-old male, said he was on the 1000 block of North Columbus Boulevard when he entered a burgundy vehicle with another man that drove to the North Philadelphia location.
