SUMMARY: On Friday, March 25, 2016, deputies from the Victorville Police Station responded to the Smoke Shop, located in the 14500 block of 7th Street in Victorville, for a call of assault and attempted robbery.
Two suspects entered the Smoke Shop and one began talking with the clerk while the other stood nearby. The suspect talking to the clerk, who was later identified as Daveion White, suddenly grabbed the clerk and smashed her head into the counter. He then jumped behind the counter where he attempted to take merchandise. The clerk tried to stop the suspect and he struck her and threw her to the floor. A witness in the store began yelling at the suspect and retrieved a taser from her bag. When the men saw the taser they ran from the store.
Based on information obtained from San Bernardino County Probation, detectives were able to identify the suspects as 19 year old Daveion Malik White and 19 year old Kobe Lamar Harvey. A search warrant was served on April 14, 2016, in the 15100 block of Roan Circle in Victorville. During the service of the search warrant detectives arrested Daveion White. He was booked at the High Desert Detention Center for attempted robbery and assault.
Kobe Harvey is still at large. Detectives are releasing a photograph in hopes that someone will recognize Harvey and contact the Police Department.
