BLOOMINGTON - Five men and a woman reported being robbed at gunpoint by three masked men early Thursday in a parking lot on the city's east side, authorities said.

The robbery was reported around 3 a.m. Thursday in the 2400 block of Rainbow Avenue, Bloomington police said. Six people in their 20s told police they were robbed by three men who fled in a car.

One victim, a 23-year-old from Bloomington, who resisted was hit on the head with a gun and later transported to OSF St. Joseph Medical Center, where he was no longer listed as a patient Thursday.

A purse, cell phone, credit cards, keys and some cash were among the items reported stolen by the three men, police said.

Police later found and impounded a car possibly used in the robbery.
