On 05/01/15 at approximately 3:57 AM, a black, newer model Toyota Corolla parked at pump #5 at the Chevron gas station located at 500 N. Garfield Ave. The driver exited his vehicle and then followed an employee, who was outside, into the gas station. The suspect produced a two-tone black (grip) and nickel-plated (slide) handgun from his waistband. The suspect demanded money from the register. Once opened the suspect ordered the victim to empty the money from the drawer and give it to him. The suspect then returned to his vehicle and fled westbound on Beverly Blvd out of sight. Total loss was approx. $400 in various denominations of US currency.
Anyone with information that would help investigators identify this suspect should contact Detective Adams at (323) 887-1200 ext.256 or email at [email protected].
