The witness was inside of the business when the two suspects, a male and female, entered the location, produced a firearm and declared the location was being robbed. The witness fled the location and immediately called authorities with a description of not only the suspects, but the vehicle they were driving.
The suspects forced one of the store clerks to open the register where they took the cash from the register and fled the location in a silver Kia spectra. As deputies canvased the area, Palmdale Patrol Deputies Michael Luter and David Camps observed a silver KIA spectra waiting for a red light at 40th Street East and Avenue S, with two occupants matching the suspect’s descriptions.
Deputies Luter and Camps, along with assisting units, conducted a traffic stop of the vehicle near the 4000 Block of Elwood Avenue, Johnson’s home, and detained the two suspects for a Robbery investigation. During their investigation deputies located a 9mm Ruger semi-automatic handgun, a pair of black gloves, a black ski mask and scarf, as well as a large amount of US currency.

Deputies continued their investigation by serving a search warrant on Johnson’s home were they located a “Luger” TEC-9 assault pistol.
