Arrests Made in West Hollywood Robberies
Police may have caught a break in a string of robberies that have recently occurred in West Los Angeles. According to a Los Angeles Times article, four suspects were observed driving a white Toyota Sienna around the robbery area late at night. Allegedly, the suspects fled on foot from a gas station once they were approached by police, who attempted to follow and locate the above mentioned vehicle for the better part of an hour.
Reportedly, one of the suspects, after brandishing a weapon, was shot in the leg and then apprehended by police officers. A second suspect was taken into custody a short time thereafter, but the two other suspects remain at large. Police initially decided to follow the suspects’ vehicle because of erratic driving in local area parking lots. No further details about the two remaining suspects were available.
While an investigation is being conducted into whether or not the four suspects are connected to the string of robberies, it is important to remember that all suspects are in fact innocent until proven guilty. The best course of action for the men in custody is to retain the services of an experienced Los Angeles defense attorney who will ensure that they are afforded the strongest defense possible given the circumstances of the case.
