The first incident took place after 1 p.m. May 1 when a delivery driver from the Hong Kong Restaurant attempted to make a delivery on Topliff Street. The driver told police he was approached by two men sitting on the porch of a home. They pulled a knife on the driver who gave them his money and cell phone. The men then fled.

More recently, on May 3 at about 10:30 p.m., a driver from the China Station Restaurant told police he was making a delivery near Topliff Street when three men tried to rob him. One of them appeared to have a gun, the driver said.
