Police in Fitchburg investigate an armed robbery that happened in the same area as an earlier "shots fired" call.
Fitchburg police say at about 9:30 p.m., officers were called to Anton Drive for a report of shots fired. Then, shortly before 10 p.m. Thursday, officers were called to the 5100 block of Anton Drive. A man reported he had been walking home from a store when a man with a gun came up to him near the intersection of Anton Drive and Williamsburg Way. The man took money and ran away.
The robbery is described as a black man in his mid-20s with a slender build. He was wearing a black hoodie, black sweatpants, and white shoes.
