Armed Robbery
Report Number: 24-3109
On Thursday, June 20, 2024, at 1:19 am, officers responded to the broadcast of a robbery that had occurred five minutes prior at the 5600 block of Sepulveda Boulevard. Officers arrived quickly and contacted the victim.
Initial investigation indicates that the victim visited an ATM at 1:10 am on the 5600 block of Sepulveda Boulevard. He withdrew cash, and while walking back to his vehicle, two suspects ran up to him. One of the suspects (S-1) pointed a black semi-automatic rifle at the victim and said, “Give me the money. Give me the cash”. Fearing for his safety, the victim threw the money on the ground in front of them. S-1 demanded more money and the victim’s cellphone. When he did not produce the items, S-1 told the victim, “Let's get in your car and go somewhere else.” When the victim did not comply, both suspects fled the area.
Investigators are asking anyone who may have information regarding this case to please immediately contact the Culver City Police Department Public Information Officer, Jennifer Atenza, at (310) 253-6120, email [email protected], or the Watch Commander at (310) 253-6202.
