A man on a bicycle has been robbing people at gunpoint in the Natomas area of Sacramento, police said.
Authorities said the bike bandit has been cruising through Natomas, holding up residents and then riding away. Police said the man has tried to rob people at three different homes, attacking them as their vehicles pull into driveways.

Michelle Lazark, spokeswoman for Sacramento Police Department, said the victims are often preoccupied with getting their familiies out of their cars and into their homes.

"He's aggressive, he's violent and he's willing to use a gun," Lazark said. Attacks have taken place on Vosspark Way, Bridgecross Drive and Arnold Gamble Circle. Local residents said they are worried.

"It shatters your confidence in your community," resident David Waldrop said. "You don't feel safe."

Police are searching for a man who roams a north Sacramento neighborhood on a bicycle and attempts to rob people as they pull into their driveways.

There were three such robberies over the weekend in Natomas, a vast neighborhood of newer homes that has experienced a wave of foreclosures.

At one home, the robber shot his intended victim in the buttocks as he tried to escape into his house.

Police say the robber confronts people while they are unloading their cars. He then brandishes a weapon and demands money.
