Five men are wanted in connection with robbing and assaulting a bus passenger, Metro police said.

It happened on July 26 on CAT route 113.

As the victim was attempting to exit the bus, one of the five took his wallet out of his back pocket, police said.

When the victim confronted the man, he was pushed and punched by three other men in the group.

As the bus stopped near Owens Avenue, the fifth group member told the rest that they needed to leave. They were last seen running from the scene eastbound on Owens Avenue.

All of the men are described as African-Americans, between 17 and 20 years old. They're all about 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall.

Anyone with information is asked to call Metro's Robbery Section at 702-828-3591 or Crime Stoppers at 702-385-5555.
