Investigators with the Hall County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) are looking into a report of an attempted robbery on the southside of Gainesville Wednesday night.
According to the incident report, it happened about 11:45 in the 400 block of Highland Terrace.
“Deputies responded to a 911 call from the victim who said he was walking down the road…when a vehicle pulled up beside him and two men jumped out,” HCSO spokeswoman B.J. Williams said Friday. “He said they were armed with guns and demanded money. They checked the victim’s pockets, but he didn’t have any items on him, so they left the scene.”
Williams said the victim was not injured.
