Two men robbed a UCLA student at gunpoint early Thursday on Strathmore Drive, taking a cell phone and money before driving away, university police said.

About 2:37 a.m. Thursday, the student was walking on Strathmore Drive near Levering Avenue when two men approached from behind and pushed the student to the ground, police said.

When the student sat up, one of the men took out a handgun and told the student to give him their cellphone and wallet, according to a UCPD statement. The men then took the student’s cell phone and money, and fled the area in a sedan and a van, police said.

The first man was described as black, about 20 to 25 years old, and 170 pounds with a dark complexion and medium build. He had a shaved head and no facial hair, and was wearing a navy blue sweater without a zipper, police said. The student described his car as an older model, a gold-colored four-door sedan from the late 1990s or 2000s.

The second man was described as black and about 20 to 25 years old with long hair. His van was described as a dirty older model, which could hold 10 to 12 passengers, with body damage.

No injuries were reported, and UCPD has not made any arrests in connection with the incident.

Police recommend that students walk and park in well-lit areas and not become distracted by music or cell phones.

When confronted by a robber, students should comply with the robber’s demands and obtain a detailed description of the robber, police said.

The armed robbery is currently under investigation. Anyone with information about the incident can call UCPD at (310) 825-1491.
