65-YEAR-OLD MAN BEATEN, ROBBED

A 65-year-old man was beaten and robbed by two men in Southeast Roanoke about 1 a.m. Saturday.

Charles Henry Casey, address unknown, was found by police lying on a sidewalk on Dale Avenue.

He had facial injuries and his nose appeared to have been broken.

Casey gave police a description of his two assailants before he was taken to Roanoke Memorial Hospital.

Jimmy Wayne Elkins, 27, of Stewart Avenue Southeast has been charged with robbery.

Police are seeking a second suspect in the robbery.
