A Middletown man told police that he was robbed at gun point of $2 and his cell phone while walking to the store Friday night.

The man said as he was walking on Roosevelt Boulevard from his home to Family Dollar around 9:30 p.m., he was approached by a man who asked if he could use his cell phone, according to a police report.

The man kept walking, he told police.

That’s when the suspect said: “Give me all your money.” He gave the suspect all the money he had, $2, and his cell phone, the report said.

There also were three other subjects and one of them struck the victim with a gun, the man told police. He said the suspects then fired three rounds from a hand gun.
