LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Police Department is asking for the community's help in identifying two male subjects said to have been responsible for an armed robbery on Monday morning.
According to a report from Lt. Jason Ferguson, at approximately 9:36 a.m. Monday Lakeport Police officers responded to the 900 block of 11th Street on the report of a robbery.
Upon arrival officers located the victim, a 27-year-old Hispanic male out of Stockton, who told officers that two white male subjects approached him in the parking lot of CVS at 7:30 a.m.
One of the male subjects, said to be in his 30s and described as being tall, heavy set and wearing a black sweatshirt, grabbed the victim and held a knife to his throat, Ferguson said.
The second subject, described as 20 to 25 years old and smaller than the first man, with a thin build and a scar across his right eyebrow, was wearing a red sweatshirt with the hood up. Ferguson said the second man pat-searched the victim, located his wallet, and took $300 in cash.
Both subjects got into a 1990s model Red Honda car and fled westbound on 11th Street, Ferguson said.
During the course of the investigation Officer Joe Eastham obtained further detailed descriptions of both subjects and completed two composite sketches, which can be seen here.
Ferguson said the Lakeport Police Department is seeking the public’s help in identifying these subjects.
The investigation is ongoing and anyone with information is asked to contact the Lakeport Police Department at 707-263-5491.
