Two people were robbed at gunpoint last night in the College Area, according to San Diego State police.

It happened around 8:30 p.m. on Montezuma Road near 55th Street. Police said the suspects took property from the victims while they were seated inside a car, adding that one of the victims suffered a minor injury from the alleged attack.

The suspects were described as Hispanic men between the ages of 20 and 30 years old. One suspect was described as 5 feet 8 inches tall, heavy set and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with dark sweatpants. The other suspect was described as 6 feet tall and wearing a black hooded sweatshirt with dark sweatpants. Police were told both suspects were armed with pistols.

A third suspect was said to have been driving a getaway vehicle, a teal-colored Chevrolet Cavalier, but the victims weren’t able to describe that person.

None of the victims were SDSU students, police said.
