Deputies seek public assistance in identifying three beer run suspects

Sheriff�s deputies are asking the public for help in identifying three Hispanic males believed to have stolen beer from a local convenience store.

According to Detective Jim Pucillo, the three males entered a convenience store on the 1000 block of East Mission Road on Sept. 2 at approximately 11:15 p.m. The males grabbed a 12-pack of beer and two 40 oz cans of beer, and then fled the store.

As the suspects left the store, one of them pushed the clerk before fleeing on foot. No weapons were seen, and no vehicle description was available.
