That's when they said they were confronted in the hallway by a black male and a white male. The victims got a good look at the black male but the white male's face was obscured, they said. One of the offenders pointed a gun at the people and “pistol whipped” one of the women while demanding money, police said.

The male victim was held at gunpoint throughout the encounter while they were robbed. Once the two robbers got the money, they fled, police said.
