Man walking into church robbed at gunpoint

DAYTON —Â Police are looking for a black man in his late 20s who robbed a man walking into Grace United Methodist Church early Sunday morning, Feb. 1.
Ricky Huddleston told police he was walking from his car in the church parking lot, 1001 Harvard Blvd., at about 6:40 a.m. when a man walked up and asked him for money to catch the bus, according to a police report.
When Huddleston said he didn’t have any money, the man pulled out a black handgun from his waistband and pointed it at Huddleston’s head, he told officers.
The man took Huddleston’s wallet and ran off, the report stated. The wallet had Huddleston’s driver’s license, Social Security card and undisclosed amount of cash inside, the report stated.
Huddleston, who works at the church, did not call police for more than an hour, saying he wanted to check with the church’s pastor before notifying officers, the report stated.
Officers searched the area, but found no one matching the suspect’s description. The gunman is described to be about 5-foot-8, 160 pounds.
