Robbery victim chases after suspects in vehicle

A man chases after suspects after being robbed outside his home.

Tulsa, Okla. —

A robbery victim tries to chase down his robbers late Saturday night.

Tulsa police tells KRMG it started in front of the victim's house near North Toledo and East Latimer around 11:30 p.m.  A truck drove up to the victim who was standing outside his house, a guy pulled out a gun and demanded the man's money before driving away.

The victim got into his vehicle and began chasing the suspects.  Police say this must have spooked the  suspects because they crashed near East Pine and North Sandusky Avenue.

The victim then called the police.

When officers arrived, at least two and possibly three suspects had locked their crashed truck and disappeared into a nearby forrest.  Police say a child may have been with the other two suspects.

There is no description of the suspects.
