Investigators Seeking Public’s Assistance Identifying Robbery Suspects

SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. – On Tuesday, September 16, 2014 at approximately 7:20 p.m, a robbery occurred at the Verizon 4G Wireless store located at 120 North El Camino Real.  The suspects entered the store and demanded iPhones that were being stored in the back of the store.  No weapon was seen or threatened by the suspects and they were seen leaving the location in a late model, grey or light blue, Toyota mini-van.

The suspects are described as male, Hispanics or Asians, 5 feet 7 inches tall, medium build, hoodie sweatshirts, dark colored pants and black ski masks.  One suspect was wearing a red baseball cap.
