HILLSIDE -- Two men robbed a delivery man at gunpoint while he was bringing Chinese food to a home Thursday night, police said.

The delivery man was walking up to 1284 Myrtle St. around 9:30 p.m. when one suspect approached him from the driveway and another, wearing a mask and brandishing a gun, came from the sidewalk, Detective Lt. Vincent Ricciardi said.

The man in the mask then pointed the gun at the 56-year-old delivery man and demanded money, Ricciardi said. He said the suspects became spooked when a car drove by, and they grabbed the delivery man's food and ran south toward Silver Avenue.

Police investigating said the person who answered the door at the house had not actually ordered any food.

Hillside resident Mikal Jones, 18, has been arrested in relation to the robbery. Jones was carrying a black handgun in a fanny pack when police found him, Ricciardi said.

Jones is charged with obstructing the administration of law, second-degree robbery, possession of a handgun and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. He will be transported to Union County Jail and has bail set at $100,000.

Officers have not yet found the second suspect, described as a black male.
