MIAMI SPRINGS, Fla. – What police said is a residential area with limited crime incidents was the scene of an attack on Friday just after 6 p.m.
According to Miami Springs police, a man on a bike path on Ludlam Drive was attacked when 2 men armed with guns approached him from behind and demanded his wallet.
When the man told them he was not carrying a wallet, they said they wanted his cellphone, but not before pistol-whipping him. After taking the phone, the two men, described as Black males, entered a vehicle driven by a third person and drove in reverse into Virginia Gardens so the victim could not take note of the license plate, according to investigators.
