96 cents and up store in Santa Ana

Santa Ana police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred at the 96 Cents Up Store in the 1500 block of West First Street, on Tuesday morning, at around 9:35 a.m., according to the O.C. Register.

A man with a knife not only took the money from the store’s cash register – he also grabbed the keys to the store employee’s 2007 Toyota Highlander, and used it to get away, on West First St.

The store employee said the robber was a Latino male, about 30 years old and 175 pounds, in a black t-shirt, with an bright orange beanie and a black backpack.
