A 26-year-old man was threatened with death and robbed in the mid-Market area on Tuesday, cops said.

The victim was walking in the 1000 block of Market Street around 2:45 a.m. when a man in his 30s grabbed the victim’s arm, simulated a gun and said “Give me all your money or I’ll kill you,” according to police.

The victim complied. The crook fled east on Market Street toward Fifth Street, cops said.

Police met with the victim and together they looked for the crook, who was found in the 500 block of Market Street and arrested, police said.
