Police busted a North Philly man for his supposed robbery of a Whitman eatery.
Responding to a 9:42 p.m. call of an incident at Pizza Hut, 2715 S. Front St., June 26, authorities observed a black male running from the site and heading eastbound on Oregon Avenue toward Front Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. They stopped him at 36 Oregon Ave. and arrested him after the complainants positively identified him. Workers at the establishment, they said the detained figure had entered the store and produced a small handgun to demand money. They contend he reached over the counter and took cash from the register before his flight. Police located a loaded gun and $400 on 35-year-old Willie Robinson and charged him with assault, recklessly endangering another person, firearms violations and theft.
