A robber shot a man in the face with what police believe was an "airsoft" gun and stole his wallet Wednesday, authorities said.

The crime occurred about 2 p.m. in the 1700 block of Strathmore Avenue, San Gabriel police Lt. Dan Russo said.

The victim, an Asian man in his 30s, was approached by robber armed with an "airsoft"-style gun, the lieutenant said, which is a replica gun shooting 6mm plastic BB's.

They typically shoot their plastic projectiles at several hundred feet per second.

The man appeared to suffer a small laceration and a welt to his face, Russo said.

He was taken to an area hospital for examination.

The robber was described as a white man in hiss 20s, of thin build, with short hair, Russo said.

No car was seen in connection with the robbery, he added.
