PEORIA — Two teens with a tree limb tried to rob someone in South Peoria on Tuesday, but the victim refused to cooperate and walked away.

A 33-year-old man told police he was walking home about 5:30 p.m. in the 2400 block of West Starr Street when two males wearing hoodies, one of them carrying a tree branch, approached him and demanded he empty his pockets.

One of the teens threatened to stab the man, but he refused to give them anything and kept walking home, according to a police report on the incident.

He called police when he arrived home, but officers couldn’t find the suspects.
