The FBI Violent Crimes Task Force and San Diego Police Department are seeking the public’s assistance to identify the individual responsible for three armed robberies in the San Diego area.

On January 11, 2017, an individual, armed with a semi-automatic .40 caliber handgun, entered three different liquor stores and robbed them. Each time, the robber made a verbal demand for money to a store employee and fired a round from the handgun. After being provided with cash by the store employee, the robber fled the store on foot. During the robberies, the robber wore a dark, long-sleeved sweatshirt or Pendleton style shirt; a blue bandana covering his face below the eyes; black sunglasses; and a glove on the right hand.
