report-her/

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (AP) - A Chattanooga woman has found a unique use for
her Facebook account - reporting a robbery.

Chattanooga Police said 20-year-old Rolanda Hill answered a knock at her
door Sunday night and a man stuck a gun through the open door and forced
his way inside. He demanded money while holding Hill at gunpoint and
took cash and her cell phone.

Deprived of her phone, Hill used her computer to report the crime to her
Facebook friends and asked them to call police. Someone did and police
responded at about 9:30 p.m.

Police are following up leads, but there was no immediate arrest in the
robbery.
