An unidentified suspect held up two women at gunpoint Thursday night and then robbed one of them, according to a Columbus Division of Police web report.

It happened around Waldeck and East Frambes avenues shortly before midnight Thursday, the report states.

The report said the suspect brandished a gun and then demanded one of the women give up her wallet. The woman threw her wallet at the suspect, who then fled the scene without taking anything from the other woman.

The suspect took an estimated $30 worth of property from the victim, including her wallet, cash, credit cards and ID, according to the release.

Both women appear to be Ohio State students, according to the OSU directory.

Neither answered an email requesting comment as of Sunday afternoon.

According to the release, no one has been arrested in connection to the robbery.
