Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department asked for help finding additional victims targeted by an alleged armed robbery crew that was arrested last Friday night. 

Detectives said the group's armed robbery spree started at 1 a.m. April 18 and ended later that day at roughly 11:00 p.m. in South LA. The three suspects allegedly robbed five 7-Eleven stores in LA, Baldwin Park and Pasadena, according to LAPD. Investigators said that the suspects would have one person stay behind in their stolen blue Hyundai Sonata while the others robbed the store. The suspects used a blue-steel handgun with an extended magazine that police have not recovered. 

They allegedly tried to rob another place at about 9:50 p.m., right before the Alhambra Police Department started chasing them towards downtown LA. Two of the suspects jumped out of the car during the slow-speed pursuit after Alhambra PD handed over the chase to LAPD. 

The driver eventually gave up after he drove onto a South LA sidewalk after reaching a dead-end. Police arrested 21-year-old Jacuri Tobias for robbery. They also arrested two teens, a 15-year-old and a 17-year-old, but did not release their identities.
