An Akron landlord found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time Sunday evening.

Around 6:30pm the landlord collecting rent money in the 600 block of Hudson Avenue walked into the house of one of his tenants, only to discover he was being robbed by two men. The suspects, armed with handguns, then turned towards the landlord and robbed him of $200.00 in cash. The suspects then fled.

The suspects were two black males, 20 - 23 years old. The first suspect is 6’0”, 175 lbs, with dreadlocks, wearing a black t-shirt and blue jeans. The second suspect is 5’05” – 5’07”, 150 lbs. wearing a white t-shirt and black jeans.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Akron Police Department.
