The Commerce Police Department is investigating the armed robbery of a Duncan Circle man.


The victim, a 78-year-old black male, said he responded to a knock on his front door at about 4:45 a.m. and was confronted by two white males, at least one of which was armed with a revolver.

The victim said the men demanded money. They followed him into his hallway, where he gave them his wallet containing a driver’s license and $8 in cash, and they left.

The victim was unable to describe the robbers and could not tell whether they left on foot or entered a vehicle.
