Robbery Suspects Arrested Following Pursuit

On January 31, 2014, at approximately 10:28 p.m., officers responded to a business in the 1000 block of Pacheco Boulevard after receiving a report of an armed robbery. Two suspects described as Hispanic males entered the business, both armed with firearms. The suspects were said to be wearing gray colored hooded sweatshirts.

A citizen flagged down and told an officer the suspects may have fled in a blue vehicle. Officers located a vehicle matching the suspect vehicle description leaving the area. As officers attempted to stop the vehicle, the suspects fled leading officers in a vehicle pursuit.

The pursuit ended in the 700 block of Burlwood Court, where the suspects fled on foot. Police officers apprehended two male suspects, 26-year-old, Willies Coleman and a 17-year-old juvenile.
A third suspect described as wearing a white tee shirt covered by a dark colored hooded sweatshirt and jeans was not apprehended. The outstanding suspect was last seen running west on Burlwood Court.

“Our officers did a thorough search of the neighborhood; however, the suspect was not found. Officers did locate property stolen from the business in their canvass of the area.”
-Jason Hedden, Police Commander

“Our detectives are looking into the possibility of these individuals involvement in other recent robberies.”
-Ivan Mendez, Detective-Sergeant
