2 Men Sought in Fast-Food Robbery
Ventura County Sheriff’s Department detectives were searching Monday for two men who robbed a Camarillo fast-food restaurant at gunpoint.
The robbers hit El Pollo Loco at 399 N. Las Posas Road in Camarillo about 9:45 p.m. Sunday, a Sheriff’s Department spokesman said.
The two men, described as in their mid- to late 20s, ordered food, then waited for customers to leave before drawing guns, the spokesman said. They demanded money from four employees and forced one of them to open a safe.
One robber was described as slender and about 5 feet, 2 inches, with brown hair and brown eyes. The other robber was described as 5 feet, 8 inches, with a heavy build, wearing a red baseball cap and a dark-blue jacket with “Adidas” printed on the back.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Ventura County Crime Stoppers at 987-TALK. The group offers rewards of up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest and a criminal complaint.
