A Great Bend man said he was robbed at gunpoint outside his residence, late Sunday night.
Police were dispatched to 2543 19th St. at 10:28 p.m. and talked to Austin Blea, 19, who said six unknown males grabbed him outside that address and pulled a gun on him. Blea said they forced him inside his garage and took a PlayStation3 gaming system, three games and money. His phone was not working, but after the subjects left he was able to go to a neighbor’s residence and call 911, then returned home where he was contacted by officers.
