Definition

Street slang for demanding someone hand over their possessions under threat of violence, essentially a verbal stick-up. It's the imperative form of robbery where "run that" means "give me that right now or else." Not to be confused with the cardiovascular exercise of the same name.

Example Usage

The guy tried to run my phone in the parking lot, but I just kept walking and he didn't follow.
