North Charleston police responded to three separate robbery calls Thursday afternoon involving three individuals and a black van.
Police later stopped a black van matching the description on Ashley Phosphate Road. The three occupants were detained after evidence of the robberies was located in the van, police said.
One of the victims told police one suspect pointed a pistol at his chest and demanded everything in his pockets. The suspect stole some change and struck the 27-year-old North Charleston man in the face with the pistol. A second man, also from North Charleston, told police the suspects stole his cellphone, plus $600 in cash. A third North Charleston man claimed that his cellphone, $250 in cash and a $600 check were taken by the suspects, according to police reports.
