An armed robber was apparently shopping for more than pet food when he followed a customer home from a Walnut Creek pet shop and robbed him of his watch and keys Sunday.
The incident in the 1500 block of First Avenue, according to police, although no time was provided.
The suspect was described as a black male in a hoodie armed with a black handgun. He was last seen on Hall Lane in a white BMW 4-door with black license plates, heading in the direction of Geary Road.
Is it just me or does that car keep turning up at robbery scenes???
Fancy watch?
“Small black handgun” has become the fashion accessory of choice for this year.
Would be interested in knowing if the pet stores are Walnut Creek or Pleasant Hill locations.
Targeting people at pet stores? No paper plates? Get a job.
Yes, the description of the car and the person matches the other “follow home robberies from Walnut Creek”…. And by a coincidence, (or maybe not) it matches the description of a follow home robbery up in yountville, where my sister lives. A man was robbed of his watch by a same describe criminal. The police up there supposedly arrested that guy, but with our current system I’m sure he was let out the same or next day.. to continue his unsavory profession. Maybe it’s the same guy stealing his daily up-to-$950-and-not-go-to-jail policy of California.
