PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — A man was arrested Thursday after allegedly robbing a security guard on patrol the day before, then returning to rob the same building the following morning, police said.
Just before 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, an officer responded to the Zidell shipyards at 3121 South Moody Avenue on a report of a robbery.

Court documents say the officer spoke with the building’s security guard, who claimed Noor Baheej had been hiding out in the building, came up to him, grabbed him and demanded his wallet. The guard also gave Baheej his phone and credit card.
The documents further state the guard told Baheej he needed some water, so they went towards another building on the property. The guard used this opportunity to run away, but Baheej caught up to him and threatened to stab him with a rusty screwdriver. However, the guard managed to get away again and a witness called police.
