WARREN, Ohio (WKBN) – A reported robbery victim told police the robber made him “pinky promise” that he wouldn’t call authorities after stealing $80 from him.
The victim said the robbery happened near a Pit Stop gas station around 10:40 p.m. Sunday in Warren, Ohio, according to a police report.
The 22-year-old man said he was walking along the road when he was approached by a man wearing a ski mask. He said the man asked him if he was a drug dealer, and when he responded that he wasn’t, he said the robber pulled out a pocket knife and demanded money from him.

The robber rode off on a bicycle, according to the report.

Officers checked the area near the gas station for a man riding a bicycle but were unable to find anyone.
