The Times-Dispatch reports - minimally - that a mugging occurred last night in the 2100 block of Grove Avenue.

A man was robbed in Richmond's Fan District last night but was uninjured.

The man told police he was approached about 9:55 p.m. in the 2100 block of Grove Avenue by two males -- one with a handgun, the other with a knife, Capt. Dave Martin said.

It's noteworthy that this robbery occurred two hours before midnight, well inside the boundaries of the Fan. The muggers are getting brazen, and that's not good.
