Police Blotter: CVS Robbed On Easter Sunday

According to a San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department news release, a suspect described as a hispanic male adult dressed in a black hat, black hoodie (hood pulled over his head), blue jeans and black gloves, forced his way into the manager's office in the rear of the CVS Pharmacy after knocking on the key pad door. An employee opened the key pad door and the suspect explained he needed to use the bathroom. The employee opened the door for him and turned to go back into the office.

Instead of going into the bathroom, the suspect forced his way into the office, grabbed the employee by the hair and forced her to the ground. Once inside the office, the suspect kept his back to the video surveillance camera and forced the employee to the ground telling her, "I have a gun. If you scream, I'll kill you!"

The suspect then removed an undisclosed amount of cash (multiple denominations and coins) and placed it into a brown canvas or nylon bag. The suspect then exited the manager's office and left the store.

Deputies arrived on scene while the call was being aired by dispatch, but the suspect was able to flee the area.

Detectives are asking that anyone who has information about this robbery or the identity of the robbery suspect, to contact them at the Highland Police Department at 909-425-9793. Callers wishing to remain anonymous may leave information on the We-Tip Hotline by calling 1-800-78-CRIME or by accessing the web site at www.wetip.com.
