Masked Man Robs Fall River Ice Cream Truck

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) -- Call it a cold case.

Police in Fall River are looking for a masked man who robbed an ice cream truck last weekend.

Police tell the Herald News the truck's 66-year-old driver was stopped at an intersection at about 9 p.m. on Sunday when a man entered the truck and demanded money.

The victim told police he felt something like a knife being held to his side before the suspect grabbed money form the cash drawer and fled on foot.

The victim sustained a minor injury to his right knee trying to stop the suspect.

The thief is described as a 5 foot 10 inch tall, white man with a thin build, who wore a black, zip-up hooded sweatshirt and a black cloth covering the lower part of his face.
