Teen says he was robbed at gunpoint while mowing lawns to support family as mom fights cancer

Police are searching for two men accused of robbing a Pennsylvania teenager at gunpoint last week in Penn Hills.

According to WPXI-TV, the teen – who asked to not be identified – said he was mowing lawns to earn extra money for his family. He said his mother has been out of work since being diagnosed with cancer.

He said the driver pulled out a gun and he put a bandana around his face.

All of the money he had earned cutting grass was stolen from him, the teen told WPXI.

Police said they are investigating the incident but so far do not have any suspects.
