Stamford Delivery Drivers Report Gunpoint Robbery

Stamford police said two men robbed the pair, taking close to $500 in cash.

Two Chinese food delivery men reported an armed robbery on Warren Street to Stamford police late Sunday night. 

According to authorities, officers were dispatched to Warren St. after two China King Restaurant employees contacted them saying a pair of black males had been in the area when they arrived to make a delivery and brandished a gun, demanding money.

Authorities said one male threatened the pair, stating "I don't want to kill you, just give me the wallet," while the other took the wallet and went through it, reportedly taking $400 to $500 in cash from the victim.
