PRESS RELEASE
7-11 Store Robberies


On Wednesday, May 1, 2013 the 7-11 store located at 1151 W Redondo Beach Boulevard was robbed by two individuals at approximately 3:00AM.

On Wednesday, May 8, 2013 another 7-11 store located at 2200 Marine Avenue was robbed by the same two individuals.

In both early morning robberies, the suspects entered the businesses when it appeared no customers were present. One of the suspects removed a handgun from his waistband area, showed it to the clerk and demanded cash from the register.

The suspects are described as an African American male, 20 to 25 years old, 5’08”, with short hair. The second suspect is possibly a Hispanic or African American male, 20 to 25 years old 5’08” with a thin mustache and acne on his face.

The suspects were seen leaving in a black sedan.
