CHESTERFIELD, VA (NBC12) - Chesterfield Police are hoping a recent spike in street robberies doesn't continue into this weekend.
There've been several cases in the last couple of weeks.
Three alone Thursday night.
One of those happened here off Swineford Road and Jeff Davis Highway.
Police say a man was riding his bike down the street when a car pulled up beside him.
They say two men jumped out, beat him up, searched his pockets, then tried to get away after a neighbor nearby fired a gun in the air.
One resident says he's not surprised.
"I've noticed it myself certain people come up and look at the house and stare at the house and go slow past it but if they see me come out and watch them they usually move on," said resident Ed Washbon.
Police believe many of these robberies could be connected.
In most cases, it's three suspects using force to steal from their victim.
