Two suspects are being sought by police for allegedly committing a series of street robberies in the Los Angeles Police Department’s Northeast Division.

On Tuesday, Sept. 1 at approximately 5:30 a.m., two suspects in a vehicle  pulled up to a victim walking in the 2800 block of Fletcher Drive. One of the suspects asked the victim for directions, while the second suspect got out of the vehicle, pointed a handgun at the victim and demanded the victim’s property. The suspects then drove away.

Approximately 15 minutes later, the same suspects approached a second victim who was walking near the intersection of Tyburn Street and Atwater Avenue. The driver asked for directions while the passenger got out of the vehicle and demanded the victim’s property.

The suspects stole the victims’ credit cards, which were later used at a store where the suspects’ images were captured by surveillance video.

The driver is described as Caucasian, approximately 5 feet 8 inches tall with blonde hair and a mustache. The passenger is described as African American, approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall with black hair, a mustache and possibly an earring in the left ear. The suspects’ vehicle is described as a white, late model Kia Optima.
