Man robbed at gunpoint after series of dates go wrong

The site of the former Badger Bus Depot at the corner of South Bedford Street and West Washington Avenue became the site of an armed robbery last Thursday, according to a police report. Around 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 10, a 37-year-old man from Detroit, Mich., was robbed.

The victim, who was in town visiting a woman he had met on Facebook, called the Madison Police Department after the woman robbed him at gunpoint. According to the report, the pair had been dating for a week and had spent the last few days in Madison bowling and dining out.

When the victim said he needed to return home because his father had fallen ill, the woman took him to the site on Bedford Street instead of the stop on Stoughton Road where he had originally arrived, the report said. Once they arrived, the woman told the victim she would get his luggage out of the trunk, but instead pulled out a gun and robbed the man of his money and wallet. According to the victim, it was an “itty bitty gun.”

The female suspect is said to be in her 30s, between 5'4" and 5'6" with brown eyes, reddish-brown hair, light skin and freckles on her face. The victim provided the MPD with several leads, but the suspect has not yet been located, the report said.
