The student was walking on Plympton Street between Mass. Ave. and Mt. Auburn Street at about 11:45 p.m. on Monday night, when he was allegedly approached by a man holding a knife, the e-mail stated. The armed man allegedly demanded the student’s property, and the victim handed over his Ipod and money. The alleged perpetrator fled, and the student was left unharmed, the e-mail said. The student...
