Here’s a roundup of a few Lower Haight news stories that didn’t quite make it to the front page this week.
The Examiner reports on an attempted armed robbery on the 600 block of Page Street Wednesday night. A 23-year-old, pellet gun-wielding male suspect tried to mug a 29-year-old woman. “The victim refused, fled, notified police and the pellet gun bandit was caught.”
A night earlier, another 29-year-old woman was robbed at gunpoint by two attackers on Rose and Laguna. To our knowledge, no arrests have been made.

On Saturday night, Swankety Swank (289 Divisadero) hosts a CD release party for SF duo Heart of Orion (Danielle Kerley and Ty Oz). The event runs from 6-9pm, with a suggested donation of $5.
