Police Blotter: Couple Robbed At Gunpoint In Their Garage, Trio Make Off With Cash

According to a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department news release, on April 2, 2009, deputies from the Highland Police Station responded to a residential robbery that had just occurred in the 25000 block of 5th Street in the City of Highland.

Upon arrival deputies were advised by the two victims that three black males approached them as they were sitting in their garage. One suspect removed a black handgun and ordered them both to the ground. The suspect with gun held it to the female's head and demanded drugs and money, while the other two suspects held the male victim on the ground. Fearing for her life the victim cooperated and gave them all of her money and denied having any drugs. The suspects then removed all of the male victims money and fled on foot. Deputies immediately established a perimeter and conducted a search of the area with negative results. The male victim also left the residence prior to the deputies arriving.

Suspects are described as three black male adults of unknown age, 5-8 to 5-10 in height, one of heavy build and armed with a handgun, last seen wearing black hooded jacket.
