The Alexandria Police Department is investigating a robbery at the Bradlee Shopping Center this morning just before 9 a.m. that left one victim injured.
According to scanner traffic, the victim was bleeding from the face after being punched near the McDonalds on the 3600 block of King Street. Scanner traffic said the suspect may have taken the victim’s shoes and wallet.
The Bradlee Shopping Center has seen multiple violent incidents including the murder of 18-year-old Luis Mejia Hernandez, though local business owners said some of that had settled in recent months.
