A fight and robbery at the Grand Forks Super Target landed one man in jail Thursday night. Awil Abdullahi of Grand Forks was arrested and charged with robbery after police were called to the Target on 32nd Avenue south about an assault.

The Grand Forks Police Department says they were called after people saw Abdullahi and someone he knew fighting inside a car in the parking lot.  During the fight, Abdullahi stole items belonging to the victim. The victim was not seriously hurt.

When police arrived, Abdullahi had already left, but the victim and a couple witnesses gave officers Abdullahi's name, clothing description and where he might be located. A couple hours later, someone called saying they spotted Abdullahi and that he may have a handgun. Police were able to pull him over a few minutes later during a traffic stop in the 2200 block of Cherry Street.

Three people were in the car at the time, but two were released because they weren't involved in the early incident.
