PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- A vendor selling frozen lemonade told police he was robbed by a gunman wearing a Pepsi shirt Sunday evening in the Silver Lake neighborhood.
Javier Santiago, 40, told police he was pushing his lemonade cart on Atwood Street at around 7:20 p.m. when a dark gray Ford Explorer stopped near him.
A man wearing a shirt with the Pepsi graphics got out of the passenger seat and pointed a gun at him, Santiago told police, so he turned over his waist pouch filled with the day's lemonade sales.
The SUV sped off onto Union Avenue. Santiago was uninjured. The suspect was described as a black man, between 20 to 30 years old, 5 feet 8 inches tall, medium build with a scar over his right eye.
