A 19-year old Vallejo man is in custody following his arrest in connection with the June 18 robbery at the Macy’s in Walnut Creek’s Broadway Plaza.

Simon was taken into custody by the Contra Costa County Sheriff’s office on July 5, 2022. During his arrest, Simon was found to be in possession of a loaded firearm.
The case was presented to the District Attorney’s Office on July 8 and Simon remains in custody on the following charges:
PC 211, Robbery
PC 459, Burglary

WCPD is still actively conducting this investigation. If you have any information related to this case, please contact the Walnut Creek Police Tip Line at 925-943-5865.
Nice arrest by WCPD and CoCo. But, what will really happen to a misguided youth of just 19?

The DA charged him with several serious felonies, Jeff.
A 211 collar means at least a two year bid (typically in the 3-6 year range, depending on mitigating / aggravating factors), but the firearm enhancement will likely tack on a few more trips ‘round the sun. If prosecutors tack on conspiracy and California Control of Profits of Organized Crime Act charges (a veritable certainty assuming all the Rolex stickups are related), he’ll likely do at least a dime on a level 4 yard.
Campo,
As I recall, no firearm was used at Macy’s and lately those “if” charges never happen. He’ll be out in six months, if he does any time at all.

Arrests of young hirelings are almost meaningless unless the ringleaders are found, charged, and convicted.
One of these clowns will flip.Omertà is sooo 20th century!
There were two other suspects. My husband and I were outside of Macy’s when this went down. 3 total, all masked, gloved and they all had hoodies on too.
Thanks, Neighbor! (We like how that worked out!)
