Man loses $20, suffers gash during robbery

A 60-year-old man suffered a four-inch cut on his head early Thursday after another man hit him with a shotgun's handle during a robbery, Little Rock police said.

Steven Montgomery of Little Rock told authorities that he was walking about 12:13 a.m. to his home, which is near the Kum & Go on Colonel Glenn Road, when a man stopped him with a shotgun, according to a Little Rock Police Department report.

Montgomery told officers that the man pointed the gun at him and demanded, "Give me all of your money," the report states. The robber stole about $20 in cash from Montgomery and then struck him on the back of his head with the shotgun's handle. Montgomery said the robber ran toward the gas station's back area.

Authorities said Montgomery was taken to St. Vincent Infirmary Medical Center to be treated for the gash that officials said would require staples or stitches.

Police describe the robber as a black man, between 20 and 25 years old, standing 5-foot-6 and weighing about 170 pounds. He was last seen wearing all black clothing.
