MEMPHIS, Tenn. — It was not a good start to the work week for a man robbed at gunpoint outside an apartment building in the 2200 block of Young Avenue early Monday.

Police said the victim was loading his vehicle just before 6 a.m. when a man with a scripture tattooed above his left or right eyebrow pointed a silver gun at him, threatened to shoot him, and took his wallet and cell phone.
