3 felons busted for armed robbery in Southern California
Three felons have been arrested in connection with an armed robbery in Riverside County, authorities announced Monday.
Deputies with the Riverside County Sheriff’s Perris Station responded to the 2000 block of North Perris Boulevard on reports of the Mar. 24 robbery at around 10:30 a.m., a department news release stated.
Details are limited and it’s unclear exactly how the incident unfolded, but authorities located the victim at the scene who had allegedly been robbed at gunpoint by the three suspects who fled the area before deputies arrived.
Members of the RCSD’s Robbery Burglary Suppression Team assumed the investigation and apprehended the three men, later identified as 44-year-old Ontario resident Deandre Owens, 22-year-old Riverside resident Damar Thedford and 39-year-old Riverside resident Treyvon Williams.
Officials did not provide any information on whether the victim knew the suspects or if anyone was injured during the alleged robbery.
Owens was booked at the Cois Byrd Detention Center on charges of robbery, a felon in possession of a firearm, possession of a loaded firearm in a public place. Thedford was booked at the same detention center on charges of a felon in possession of a firearm, possession of a loaded firearm in a public place. Williams, also booked at Cois, was wanted on a felony warrant, authorities said.
Authorities say the investigation into the incident is ongoing and anyone with information is urged to contact Investigator Rooker at 951-776-1099 or the Perris Station at 951-210-1000.
